Combi swap with twin flue.

[MK Heating]

Just been to price what I thought was a straightforward combi swap. The boiler that is in now however is an Ideal Isar with a twin 60/60 flue. It's a 4th floor flat, the flue is in a ceiling void with adequate inspection hatches. Measured the overall flue length as just under 6m.

A logic has a max flue length of 7m. I could change it to a standard flue without any damage to property I think, the place is a swanky pad, however being 4 floors up I'm struggling to find a way to change the terminal with out a scaffold. Much difference between the Isar terminal and the Logic terminal? I also see Ketson boilers are the same boilers as ideal. Has any one any experience with Ketson?

Don't go keston

Worcester
Baxi have a twin flue
Navin you can go upto 100'

Can you get easy access to the flue?
Cherry picker or boom lift
Most boilers have twin flue options as far as I remember

Ravenheat might be worth a look pal

I would not fit one of these if it were free of charge. But that's just my opinion.

Its funny a few say this , as a cheap and cheerful boiler , they are superb , the new White Heat range are spot on , honestly.

Thanks for your replies guys. Can't say I've seen anew ravenheat for years haha. Had a look and Baxi allow a 10m standard flue so that's well enough for what I need. Going to fit a Duo-Tec and run a standard flue I think.

Thanks again
