Hi everyone. What boilers do people recommend for those on a budget? fitted a few vailant but people want cheaper nowadays..
 
main i only fit potterton heat max(BAXI duotec 1 in disguise but there not the cheapest)if someone wants cheaper the main is very close to the heatmax anyway price wise
 
The logic is a great budget boiler. I would highly recommend them. And they do a lovely easy to use easy to fit wireless programmable stat.
 
i fitted the cheaper ideal one for £450 and the customer was well happy considering i quoted for an intergas
 
intergas is not a budget boiler imho

Only one i have seen was hanging on a stand in Plumblines (plumbase). Technically a good boiler but too obscure and poor back up in Scotland. Not many fitted up this way. Not that cheap either.
 
intergas is not a budget boiler imho

It is compared to WB or Vaillant, Baxi to name a few.
I was surprised how cheap they are compared to these, lets just hope they are as good as people say though.
£70 dearer than the Logic and £300 cheaper than WB.

I know. I have fitted 7 of them now and i am quite impressed :lol:
You've kept that under your kilt a bit haven't you?! 7 logics?! If you listen very carefully you can hear gasman sharpening his axe!
 
It is compared to WB or Vaillant, Baxi to name a few. Yes you are right because they are robbing gits the first two , I have found the intergas good myself
 
will probably try glow worm next see how they are as i am a club energy member now so can get benefits
 
potterton heatmax £565 flue and clock all in from pts thats what ive been getting them for
 
am the same as gasman potterton heatmax and for landlords i go for the new gloworm betacom A 28kw £499+vat
 
I have said the Logic and Logic+ is a good boiler since it came out and the independent is a cheaper alternative but basically the same boiler with less warranty. I see a trend of ideal converts emerging.

Ps I have changed 2 chocolate worcester fans this week both less than 5 years old

ive been fitting them on contract and also fitted a few espirit 2 aswells, the icos older brother
 
how much are the intergas ones,boiler,flue,clock.
i,m a veissmann man,but little pricy for l/lords
 
My local PTS are doing the Alpha Intec 24X and flue for £499!!
 
I can buy Intergas 24 for just short of £800 with std flue no clock.#
But to be honest with the results and performance I have had I would pay more.
I will certainly never buy worcester ever again Full of plastic leaking stuff and I have bad times with many Baxi/main even though I have never fitted any.
My theory is
Budget Ideal independant
Mediocre Logic or +
Quality Intergas
 
when i went on the ideal course on monday the trainer was sure the independant was a rebadged logic for certain suppliers.
