Word of mouth is best. But failing that you could cross reference with the Vokera/Baxi installers search on their website.
You could also search Heat Geek for an installer who has passed their qualification using the map at this link. It says for heat pumps but it works for boilers as well.

I'll come back as a gas safe plumber in my next life ...
Why installers are more keen on installing Baxi/Main rather then Vokera despite the latter having ‘OpenTherm’ & low output / modulation ratio (I’ve been paying attention) and now I’ve been told about Worcester Bosch 2000 30kw and Alpha Boilers….
It's case of repetitive process. If you've already fitted 50 baxi's it will be very easy for you...
Every guy has their preferences, some prefer Worcester, some vaillant, some baxi etc
And many are also approved installers and some have done specific repair courses on a particular brand hence they go for that brand. Some even do manufacturer warranty work as a sub contractor.
Because the majority of installers out there are more interested in launching white boxes on the wall and making a fast buck than they are in providing the customer with the most suitable appliance for their home and actually bothering to take the time to set it up properly to match the system. Baxi are an easy sell because everyone has heard of them, and the majority of customers aren't educated enough to know the difference. Most condensing boilers don't actually condense because they aren't set up properly to suit the system they're attached to.
Hi All….
I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and enjoying a lazy Boxing Day and still in festive spirits - I hope, otherwise I might get a bit of flack for this….
Firstly thanks to everyone whom replied - it turned into quite a riveting debate.
After getting quotes after quotes and to and from what boiler to get, different installer saying different things and prices, I threw in the towel and just went with ‘Boxt’ - I know…
So it’s going to be a Worcester Bosch Greenstar 4000 30kw or 8000 30kw with a 10/12 year warranty, chemical clean, WB magna cleaner, any pipe adjustments, thermostat, flue, carbon monoxide alarm etc all in at £2500 and couple hundred more for the 8000 Greenstar…..
They are quite easy and simple - no drama’s!
I hope - fingers crossed
