Looking to replace boiler

[markthegas]

Hi all,

new CORGI registered (and relatively inexperienced) guy here.

Looking to change my own boiler in a 3 bed house with 1 bathroom, 1 d/stairs loo, 1 wife , 1 teenage daughter and younger daughter.

Want to change from Y plan to Combi.

What would you guys recommend from experience of putting boilers in (what are good and bad).

Any advice would be really welcome. Thanks in advance.

Mark

Most boilers have pros and cons. The real question is how much you`re willing to spend. Then in your price range a few ideas might be available.

Thanks - looking to spend up to £1200. Just desperate to get rid of Potterton Suprima which has been playing up for months now (PCB - having to reset o/heat stat 2 -3 times per day).

Thank god for that, thought you were gonna say £400. Buderus or viessman are the top ones, then i`d be looking at the worcester or vaillant range. You just can`t tell what`ll prove its worth in the next 10 to 15 years. Although other installers may sway towards other manufacturers.
