Hi all,
Wanted to see what you all thought. Went to look at a 3 year old combi boiler (Worcester 28i Greenstar) today. Flue has been installed 100% correctly but still there's condensate leaking out from the horizontal part of the elbow on top of the boiler. Cleary a seal on the internal part of the flue there that's leaking and has caused extensive corrosion damage to the condensate tray in the boiler.
I went to another customer last week with a 25 year old floor standing boiler that still runs as well as it did the day it was installed. It might cost them an extra £10 a month in running costs but I bet it will still be running in 10 years time.
How on earth is this progress? Are boiler companies just becoming greedy? To me it's complete madness!
