Hi,
Is it legal to have a new boiler fitted without having TRVs fitted to existing radiators at the same time?
I've had a Gas Safe installer (all checked and legit) fit a new Vaillant Ecotec 831 Plus boiler. It has a Magclean filter, timer/ clock on the front and a wireless room thermostat fitted in the Hallway. I didn't opt for TRVs on the radiators at this time to save money and the fact i wish for the radiators to be replaced next year when i have the money to do the lot in one go.
I asked the installer about the building regulation certificate and he says he can not issue one without fitting TRVs to the old radiators but will be able to next year when we have new radiators/TRVs fitted as everything else is now in place and compliant.
The system was flushed and cleaned, inhibitor added, and the boiler 'commissioned' as all the readings have been logged down in the user manuals.
The only document i have received is a warranty letter directly from Vaillant confirming the 10 year warranty until 2025.
Thanks for any advice you can give.
