Hello all, I'm having a combi boiler put in and would appriciate some advice.
I live in a 2 bed semi det house, 5 rads, good incoming water pressure and, at the moment hot water from a tank flowing at around 20 litres/min.
Two installers have quoted, specifiing a glow worm boiler - I'd mentioned that I wanted to conceal the boiler in a kitchen wall unit and the glow worm has a rear flue, as does the current boiler.
I've heard that the Glow worm has a poor reputation. Is this so?
Also, the only written quote I've had so far specifies a GW flexicom 24cx.
A quick look at the manufacturers website shows that this boiler is suitable for a 1 bed flat only & that the flow rate is less than 10Litres/min.
Is this the wrong boiler for the job & if so why was it specified & what would you all suggest?
I'd really appriciate some advice here as I've got to make a decision this weekend
