Veissman 050-w vs Baxi 600 624 24kw

[Gary80gas]

I need to choose a reliable budjet boiler. Ive never installed a veissman before and its been years since i installed a baxi.
I like the specs on both boilers. The amount of plastic and rubber worries me about the veissman but i do still like it, the baxi 624
looks like a lot of boiler for the money. Which one would you choose and why?

Baxi for the money or main eco same as the baxi for 499 with a 5 year warranty

Less rear piping option if that matters.

Thanks,.
Ive gone for the baxi 825 which includes filter as for an extra £50 the customer gets a 10 yr warrenty over the 624s 7yr.

I'm glad you did that! I'm a BG engineer and my mate left us for Baxi. He is a proper engineer, really thorough and everything done to the manufacturer instructions. So I trust his advice. He told me the 600 is a nightmare!! He only does warranty calls and the majority of his work is on 600's...in terms of their newer boilers.

Isn’t it the same boiler with a different badge?

Exactly the same boiler but with an ADEY filter I’ve fitted 4 this year no faults they do have a qc issue atm the pipe out from the pump is missing a clip it’s rattling inside the case but if you phone it in they will supply you with a new boiler if it’s damaged / don’t spot it

what faults is he getting ?

Maybe he meant both, but he wasn't full of praise for the newer Baxi's. Although at least the prv is accessible!

 

[Knappers]

Anyone doing just warranty work for any company is going to do nothing but repair new boilers, surely the measure should be how many engineers they have doing it, rather than what each engineer is doing?

Probably stuff like that!

Fitted a few 600's and not really had any problems the diverter valve is the weak point on all baxi's they leak through the pin and get stuck its the most common problem I repair , Viessman use to much plastic for liking but seem to have a good reputation can't really judge I am fitting a 222- f next week so will have to see how that goes .

Never see much mention of Intergas on here which have no diverter valve and one heat exchanger?.

I fit them from time to time if the job suits I don't have a loyalty to just one boiler brand it's good to fit a mix it keeps you updated and skilled, never had any issues with Intergas I've heard a few problems on the xclusive regarding the condense traps ??
