Hi
I've just had a plumber price up the fitting of a Worcester 24i junior combi boiler. When I asked if this included a power flush, he said this was not required because (1) the filter would eliminate the need for this (2) as he is replacing a combi for a combi there was no need (3) the small size of the pipework (not sure if it's too small or less sludge can get through or what).
Is this guy talking rubbish or is he right? Seemed like a very genuine guy and not pushy in any way at all.
As an aside, is a seperate thermostat control really necessary? Our house is small and it takes two seconds to walk to the boiler to change the temp. Read somewhere it is more efficient to have the thermostat but not sure why?
Many thanks in advance and apologies if the questions sound a bit dumb!
