New Condensing Boilers

Jemser33

Hi,
I'm looking to replace my old 30KW gas boiler with a new condensing gas boiler.
Two question I'd like information on please.

1 Are Condensing boilers rated the same ie 1 for 1 interms of heat output, so should I be looking at a new 30KW Con. boiler.
2. What brands are recommended, I see different comments on the web about different brands, but these are a few years old, whats new , reliable, easy and reasonable to maintain.

Any advice would be appreciated.

For me, Arsiton Clas is the market leader. They manufacture most boiler components for many other boiler manufacturers but have a two year lead time on their own stuff. So if you want to see what will be standard in gas boilers in 2 years time, look at the Ariston today.
Very adaptable to suit even the most problem system.

5 year parts & labour too.

Just make sure a full chemical & mechanical powerflush is carried out. Also ensure that the installer understands volt free contact boiler electrics as most boilers are volt free & silly short cuts are taken by many installers who just don't understand the mechanics of volt free.

I would second what Shane007 said.

Yeah, we split the costs of the storage facility.

Don't know what I'd want the powerhoses for, but I'd take the warehouse of boilers please.
