    Out of the three that you mentioned, you would go for the Vortex Condensing Module 50 - 90.
    And if you are going for a new one, do yourself a huge favour and have it installed and commissioned correctly, with powerflushing, mag filter and the passport completed and sent off with a copy of the flue gas analysis.

    Better off not, as you would most likely be oversizing the boiler and you will get no benefit from that.

    What size is your house how many rads
    In most cases the 70/90 is ample and can beset for any output from 70-90k btus

    A 70/90 is ample you installer will set it up to the right output
    Just make sure you get a decent installer that commissions and sets up boiler with a flue gas analyser if they don't have one the boiler can not be set up correctly no matter what anyone tells you (setup in factory ) is the most common one
    If you post where your located someone here might be able to point you in the right direction

    A grant vortex boiler is not old enough to need replacing.Just wondering what is the problem with your boiler that it needs replacing...

    Well one is already fitted so that isn't new. If he's claiming it's a new 70/90 vortex then he's either lying or holding on to 10 year old stock
