    Help to understand quotes for new system boiler

    My thought too Second is more thorough but first is offering a better boiler ( my choice). Then again WB technical backup is hard to beat. Would I fit a Worcester in my place? I have got the Ecotec. Over the years it has needed parts changed but generally nothing drastic. Brass components...
