Need a new boiler.

[Jason.S]

Hi all.

Looking at replacing an ageing Potterton Profile standard boiler with something like a WB.

Thing is, there are a couple of different types listed and i dont which one i want/need!!

They list a Greenstar 12Ri and a 12i.

The system in my house is standard vented with 2 zone vales.

Which one would be suitable for my system?

Also, are there any other makes worth looking at?

I only seem to be wiring WB at the moment and they do seem to be the "plumbers choice".

Ta very much

look at a Vaillant ecoTec Plus 418, very good little Boilers.

Have a look at Broag Remeha boilers. Tried and tested internals,compact size, stainless steel heat ex., very quiet and good people to deal with. They have been doing condensing boilers for 20 years. Good price too.

Will look into those

I just do servicing & repair most of the time, would be happy with any of those, WB, Vaillant & Remeha.
Change my own boiler 4 months ago, fit Remeha Avanti plus 39c combi. Certainly agree with 'Plumbandplumber' about Remeha, 5 year parts & 2 labour.
They are all reliable boilers, my top 3 manufactures.They just need regular servicing.

Right then, this might throw a spanner in the works but what about Ideal?

Are they as bad as it seems?

They are middle of the road.
The boiler I recently replaced was an Ideal

Ideal for swapping to another Boiler Manufacturer.
