At those prices I think I'll be sticking with logic plus and if customer wants 7 year warranty then add £100
 
Be interested to see how how the WB CDI compact fits in amongst all this price wise!! Only 690 x 390 x 280 mm deep same depth as RI!
 
worcester are difficult enough to work on as it is without removing half the poxy boiler. Let alone this compact thing. I think Worcester had the market but have forgotten the installer/service engineer along the way. They are a nice bit of engineering don't get me wrong.
However everyone I speak to now is installing logic+ myself included but we won't know if they are truly any good for another 7 years.
the baxi's are a Lovely boiler to work on once installed but like the Worcester you spend more time building it then you do plumbing it.
Someone also mentioned ideals poor performing pcb's on the icos/isar. Let's not forget Baxi/Potterton aren't exactly known for there pcb's reliability of late. That said they are a lot cheaper to replace.
every boiler no matter what price you pay has it's own problems including ze germans. As long as your doing a good and a thorough install and putting in a boiler your proud to put your name against I would say it comes down to makers competitive pricing, installer support and customer care that will win people round

Hi everyone

if my last customer is on the forum id like to say that the worcester bosch 30cdi costs around £3000 with trade discount 😉
 
CDi compact will be solar compatible, with a valve as an option kit, very little details so far, I think only Alpha do this currently? Any others?

Software menus are mental, everything is covered I think the installer menus will take a fair bit of training for GSR's to get their heads round! Most can't do the existing CDi's

Will get hands on one and a few beers too on a model launch night on the 13th of Feb :cuss:

We'll agree to disagree. Fitted one and won't be fitting any more.

Will ask rep about cash back though lol.

The 40 does. Problem I'm finding is that it doesn't seem to fire up fast enough, and as a result, it's constantly chasing its tail. Ideal are being very good about it and changing the boiler next Tuesday, so fingers crossed. Tbh if I hadn't fitted it when it was minus 2 outside, it would have probably gone unnoticed.

Other than that, it's a lovely boiler.
 
they are fitting a brand new boiler ?take it there is a delay with firing, tb do you think its a one off or are they all like this , i like to try new boilers but this is not giving me faith

They're reassuring me that as their flagship model, it should be fantastic and they want to prove to me that its as good as they say it is. So yeah, they're fitting a new one.

Tbh if it wasn't for the HW issue I've had on this one, I'd say it was probably one of the best I've fitted. Very efficient, very quiet, good looking, easy to install, easy to use.
 
did you get any pictures of it by any chance. what time clock did you use ideal or after market, tbh ideal will want to prove these are good boiler so its good there replacing the boiler you should ask them for the hassle could you have the boiler lol
