    Hi All, My 16 year old Albion Mainsflow Integrated Combi Thermal Store (Direct) MF30/180 has split and needs replacing. I have had a couple of plumbers look at it and both have quoted me around the £2000 mark. I never expected it to cost anywhere near that but find that the cylinder alone is...
