    Looking for help in chosing the right oil burner for first time installation. Looking at Grant and Firebird condenser burners but not sure on size. House is a bungalow with 6 double radiators and 1 single. Any info on make and size that would suit.thanks.

    grant vortex is the best on the market by far

    get your plumber to do a heat calculation on what size boiler you need

    you don't want to oversize the boiler

    boiler comes set at mid position so can be ranged up or down if required

    +1 for the Grant Vortex.
    But make sure to get a good decent qualified installer who will install and commission it correctly.

    Thanks lads. Getting local qualified plumber to do all installation work just sourcing burner and tank myself. Agree with yous totally not a thing you would want to cut corners on. Sounds like the Grant vortex is the way to go. Thanks again for your info.
