Hi has anyone dealt the Keston combi 30 (twin flue system).
I went to see a job earlier and there is already a Keston system boiler in with this strange twin flue system in.(Which by the way is made out of 50mm solvent weld waste pipe. The propery is a 30-40 unit block of apartments. In the cupboard there is a system boiler with cylinder that is on it's way out, well it wont light and the cylinder immersion is leaking. Anyway, the fellow wants it replacing with a condensing combi. As I have no way of routing the flue with it being an apartment block my only option was to try and find a boiler that can be used with this type of flue system. Turns out after abit of research that Kestons weird flue system is very unique to them. They literally use solvent weld pipe and can send the flue to about 27meters ( if I hadn't have researched this I would have probably ID it.
Anyway it's almost like they made this boiler for this property, its perfect for this situation.
Has anyone dealt with these boilers, are there any other similar boilers out there ( I know there are twin flue boilers about but the fact you can use 50mm solvent weld is perfect rather than 100mm expensive twin flue that you have to buy from the boiler company.
Thanks in advance
Tom
