Intergas HRE 36/30 or 36/40 or equivalent?

[GuyHysen]

Hi everyone,

New on here and would like some advise on replacing a soon to be knackered Ideal Isar HE24 boiler...

Having done some homework, I am leaning towards the Intergas Combi Boiler.
My house has 8 radiators and 2 bathrooms.

I am wondering what people's thoughts are on the Intergas boilers or perhaps the others I have researched in the same sort of price bracket.

These are my choices listed below and I would love some feedback from the experts on here please.

Worcester Greenstar 30i
Vaillant ecotec 28Pro
Baxi DuoTec 28
Intergas HRE 36/30
Intergas HRE 36/40

Thanking everyone in advance......(I will of course thank people individually who help me in this post)

2 bathrooms...... I think I would recommend a system boiler and unvented cylinder (if you have half decent pressure and flow on the incoming mains and space for a cylinder)

No space for a cylinder unfortunately, and would rather just replace the boiler in situ.
What are your thoughts on the above combi's?

Nah.... Otherwise he would have been asking about the King of boilers....

The Eco RF 36. Same boiler essentially but better control options and a 10 year warranty.

I'm known on here of being rather partial to the "Mighty Gash"

Ok. Cool. So will it work with my Hive system or do I HAVE to use the Honeywell controllers?

 

[Dan Robinson]

It will work with hive. If you need/want Internet control, use hive with a weather sensor.

 

[Dan Robinson]

Would strongly suggest that e T6 Lyric with either OpenTherm or the weather sensor though over hive.

I'd go with the 36 ECO RF as well. Ten years warranty and if you fit the InTouch system your installer can monitor the boiler remotely if you want!

And yes it will work with the Hive if you already have it

Brilliantly advise guys...
Thanks very much.
Now just one last thing if I may?
Where's best place to buy the Eco 36 RF and what sort of price should I be paying?
Please bear in mind that I have a local Gas Registered Engineer in mind to fit it and would rather buy the boiler separately to paying the fitter..
Look forward to your thoughts...
Cheers
