Thanks - that's what I thought!
Intergas is a far better boiler.
How big your house?
How big your house?
24kw is likely fine.
22mm primaries will be pushed to the limit IMHO. . 28mm would keep the boiler much happier. . Especially that particular design of wooshitter Botch with its cheap and nasty heat exchanger.
The bg man is probably afraid it will look like a fat lass in a top 3 sizes too small before the warranty is up.

But worth the upheaval of re-piping and floor boards up and the mega cost? There is perfect and there is easy on the eye!
Lol!!!!!
Maybe I should go with storage heaters!!!! Our wood burner keeps us pretty toastie anyways.
<sigh>
Ok in my research these have never appeared in the recommended list.
What do others think of Intergas?????
Good product but poor back up support if you get issues
24kW is on the upper limit for 22mm pipework but it'll work fine.
Can't see why some people have an issue replacing a system boiler with another system boiler? Guess they're parts chuckers rather than installers.
The expansion vessel in the WB will be smaller then the old one was in the classic so it'll probably be undersized, hope they're proposing to fit an extra one somewhere?

No - no mention of that!!!
Would a Vaillant ecoTec Plus 624 System be a better option?????
A better boiler yes, but even more in need of an additional expansion vessel.
Boiler manual States 22mm flow and return, no mention of using 28mm.
So....where has the 28mm come from?

It came from BG quote saying my 22mm was no good and needed to rip up all my floors and repipe from boiler to tank with 28mm. At a great cost of course
