Namsag is an old fool who claims to know everything and lives in a dreamworld where he is a King of all things heating, where the truth is he is a very small one man band of no real significance. I wouldn't worry as he could argue with himself given the chance.
Depends on:-
How old is boiler
Is the boiler in good condition
Are spares easily available, especially a new flue kit. (if flue is cemented in then doubt it will be reusable)
A reputable OFTEC installer would advice you which is the best way forward.
Will he have to conform to todays regulations regards the efficiency of boilers [ he doesn't currently have a condensing boiler ] as it's a move and not new installation?
Older oil boilers that are commisioned and serviced correctly may not fall short of 90% efficiency.
The minimum rise in efficiency does not justify the £400-£500 manufactures added to price of condensing oil boilers
Dangermouse but at least i know what band oil boiler would meet the reg you on the other half are a daft wee boy.
Who doesnt even know yet half of what i have forgot about this job.
