choosing new boiler

[Hugh Jaleak]

Looking at that last film on the Vogue, looks like he's used copper pushfit fittings on the gas supply! Surely thats not allowed?

Pressfit, not pushfit. You can press gas provided gas fittings are used

And you can snatch it

A heat only boiler would have 2 moving parts. gas valve and the fan.

There are many other makes of boiler which are as good if not better than the commonly known makes.

Is it statistically proven there is a corrolation between number of moving parts and reliabilty?

Not necessarily, depends how well the moving parts are designed,

And then maybe the complexity of non moving parts is increased in order to reduce the number of parts that have to be moving parts. That increased complexity may reduce reliability
