Condensate pump questions ??

[Scott_D]

I think I have only ever fitted 1 in my life. Got a combi swap to do in January fitting a Vaillant ecofit 830 and will need one

Whats the best pump for reliability and low noise level?
My merchant sells grundfoss and saniflo condensate pumps or do I stump up the extra and fit the vaillant ecolevel?
Has anyone wired one to a vaillant? can it be connected to the pcb for burner off?

I've only used the Plumb Center ones. Never had an issue. Just something else to check when boiler stops working.

Depends on the warranty and if it’s a long one

I normally use the grundfos one and yes there’s a burner off on pcb or just link the live

I’ve only dealt with a handful and they’re Boss one’s, which can be wired one of 2 ways, via an audible alarm or via the live in so if it fails, the boiler stops.
