Favorite Boilers?

[Koogatubac]

After going off worcesters (view my topic in gas safe engineers section)

Whats every1's favourite to fit regarding installation, reliability, engineer friendly

Ideal logics i would say are the best regarding installation and engineer friendly...

Any views??

Snap? Finished this one yesterday. Backboiler out, 29CDi Classic in over the other side of the house. I generally fit Worcesters or Vaillants. I've got a Vaillant in my own house and always will, but Worcesters are much nicer to fit. Not looking forward to repairing them in 15 years though!

I love these bad boys



4,000kw of serious dual fuel grunt!

Nice work

never seen saddle clips used much tho... Bet there fiddily! Talons hold the pipework solid plus only one screw per clip plus pipe is not rubbing wall.

stick with the best... Worcester Bosch... The condense fill peed you off today, but just turn it off in installer mode!

Am I right to think worcesters are reliable but when they do break are a pig to work on?

They are horrible to repair and just massive lumps of plastic horribleness!

Nah straight down into the boards as it pretty much a re-pipe.

Yeah mine was a 34kw CDi, they do look good boilers but im just peed off with this one and i think ive finally had enuff of worcester... I know valiant and viesmann have good reputations. Any1 got pics of their installs?

Regarding Worcester's, their not bad to fit, just the 15-20min self set up mode is a absolute joke! Rang worcester technical today and rang again to get 2nd opinion to make sure the other guy werent telling porkies and he said that turning off the self set up mode was 'dangerous' for the boiler...

Working for this guy now all he likes is strictly copper inc the clips, loves to see bends and all the old fashioned ways of plumbing.

Do you know how to turn off this, i did get told twice but my memory is kind of a joke at the moment lol

Keep meaning to take one but haven't done a nice job yet,........,

The best ones are those that fly out the door.

The worst ones are the ones that stick on the shelf.

Yeh bored as sin already though if I'm honest. But I'm torn, the perks are great, haven't bought diesel for 3 months, getting paid holidays etc

We fit lots of Baxi, ideal and valliant. In that order . Have a working vogue in one if shops will take pic.
