My two penneth!!

It should not cost anything to convert a Condensing boiler to LPG beacuse in most cases it is just a matter of adjusting a few parameters in the set up mode, (which a commissioning engineer has to do in all cases anyway!!)

 

[cross thread]

look at remote control room stats that can be moniterd fron away to stop the building overheating /left on when not reqd etc

looks like I'm ignored again. Bit a luck I'm off on holiday in the morning

Thats not surprising when you were saying the boiler would not work on LPG which is just how its obviously installed.

Enjoy your holiday! Where are you going?

I work for a charity and we are currently looking to improve the efficiency of our Ideal Concord CX240 boiler to redice our LPG bills down from around £10k.

You gave the impression that you did not have lots of calital to spend.

My advice would be to fit the thermostats for about £100.

You could also have an hours meter added to the gas valve to show the running hours which are proportional to the gas use as the boiler operates at a fixed rate.

THEN after spending about £130 you can decide if you want to spend about £10k on all new boilers.

An interim solution could be to add a single new small boiler just to heat the hot water cylinder efficiently. That would perhaps cost about £1700 Running a large boiler to heat a cylinder is very inefficient.

Tony, I said the boiler is for natural gas only and I didn't think you could convert it.

That means either you can or it's been adapted somehow.

The holiday will expand as time goes so won't be posting much till at least Christmas if then.
