Conventional boiler

[Sespurs]

Hi guys I'm new to this forum,wanna pick your brains,what boiler do you peeps recommend ,I'm sure your gonna say either valiant,wb or veissmann but what model numbers out of those three would be the popular choice,any help would be appreciated

 

[plumber0808]

By model numbers do you mean what size kw.

That will be based on what it's supplying

 

[lame plumber]

Intergas

 

[Howsie]

What are your requirements?

 

[Sespurs]

Got a normal 3 bed semi,what I mean by model numbers ,Eco 825 or 831 or wb greenstar or cdi ,my head is spinning:banghead:

 

[lame plumber]

Intergas 28/24 combi or smaller for conv boiler

 

[plumber0808]

The names are based on the range quality and numbers are there kw sizes

So what would you recommend for me plumber0808

 

[plumber0808]

A 15-18kw conventional boiler will normally have enough power for a 3 bed house.

it also depends on the customer requirements, how many bathrooms? How many occupants? Is a combi worth considering?

 

[plumber0808]

Intergas - Smart Choice

The above would be my choice but everyone is different, a lot of people go for the worcester based on a big name, back up service is good.

[Sespurs]

wb 30.

Over the top isn't a good thing but right sizing is.

 

[Howsie]

wb 30.

Then why not go with that?

 

[lame plumber]

is that a 30 kw combi if so ok but a system or heat only its way to big

 

[Sespurs]

Problem is 1plumber tells you 1thing and another 1tells you that one is rubbish and so on and so on

 

[Sespurs]

is that a 30 kw combi if so ok but a system or heat only its way to big

Not a combi just a conventional one,got tanks in the loft

 

[Sespurs]

Then why not go with that?

Probably will ,but like to know other plumbers thoughts as you guys fit these day in day out

 

[lame plumber]

Indeed.

 

[plumber0808]

A 30 is to big. Go with a installer your happy with, feel that will do the job correctly.

You will get many variations of boilers that installers will recommend. Do a bit of homework as it is a lot of money and hopefully a long term investments.

where about's are you, you could post the job up on the site someone will help you out.

Thats exactly why people don't go with them and go with worcester. There website is great and intergas not so.
I fit a lot of worcester but I think they are too expensive. The price seems to of ramped up the last few years.


In my house I would fit a intergas.
