    Hi
    I am thinking of upgrading the controls on my super q boiler as it only has clock and switch for heating/hot water.none of the rads have any trvs 13 or 14 rads in total so when i want heat in one room they all have to heat unless i switch the other others off.
    The switch for the hot water only option on boiler only causes the boiler to kettle(bang) when choosen.anyone know what kind of money i would need to upgrade with and without a new boiler.
    Thanks

    Impossible to hazard a guess with out see the system. But you could be looking at 1500 for a controls upgrade and that's a blind estimate. If a new boilet is being considered oil boilers are more expensive and you could be looking at €1200 maybe for a GRANT EUROFLAME.
