I usually fit Remeha gas boilers, but have to quote for a customer who are a bit stretched at the moment, what cheaper boilers come recommended at the moment. Have seen a few recommendations on here for the Ideal Logic's should i consider anything else?

Oh, not interested in any of the Heat Line, Feroli, Alpha stuff as i will have to look after it in the future!
 
I too keep hearing good things about the Logic and now I have been told it was designed by an outside team,even more reasons to look at it favorably
Or the potterton mains or Baxi equivalent

imho
 
That's interesting to know, I was a little hesitant to say the least after their last efforts coincidentally I'm off up to Ideal later this week to do the Logic product course so will learn more then.

I did look at the baxi's but cant help but think that this combustion management system they have may be a little troublesome in the future, which is a shame as the old duotechs were nice simple boilers. Will have a look at the Main's and Potterton's though.
 
i would go for a main eco combi fitted quite a few very straight forward never had any issues. £585 inc flue & clock at my merchants and you can now register on their works and get points n vouchers for whatever.
 
or you could go for the new pro combi a it's a logic with a different facia panel
 
I've fitted hundreds of main combis, hardly any comebacks.

Let us know how you get on and your thoughts after you visited ideal.
 
Have priced for a pro combi, £499 +vat inc flue and timer, apparently they still have some of the old vokera based units they are trying to push out, so unless you specify the newer ideal models that's what you'll get!

The pro combi is the vokera, whilst the pro combi exclusive is based on the ideal independant (logic). They are both listed in the catalogue For the price quoted you should be able to get the procombi exclusive 30 (inc flu & timer)

Fitted one of these a couple of weeks ago and I have to say, for £469+ vat, you can't go wrong frankly.

I agree fitted a few main Eco combi's seem a very good boiler for the price. Install with a magnaclean to protect boiler
 
agreed magna clean and main eco combi is a winning combination for a buudget system! only bit of advice is undo the nuts on the back of the jig connections or you may struggle like hell to get them line up. :)

cracking deals on theses at my local merchants with flue,clock, inhibitor and loop all included :)
