The 10 year warranty is apparently is to gurantee that there will be parts available. I know they want to have Homecare200 for actually fixing problems.

The BG price is £2400 for Worcester and £2500 for a Valliant. The price includes: Power flush Boiler installation Magnabooster for sludge Wireless thermostat 10 year warranty for the boiler 2 year free HomeCare 200

Hi, I'm about to get British Gas to install a new boiler. I can't decide whether to go for a Valliant or a Worcester/Bosh. The price difference is only £100. Appreciate your response. Thanks

I had the taps/mixers for the bath/shower changed recently. so it's new. Why do we have to adjust the pressure of the water, when everything has been working fine fore years. Rem that the problem was for the whole flat: kitchen, bath sink, and the shower. Because, the pressurre is...

I have a FIME Friendly Format 80E combi-boiler. The water temp changes from warm/hot to luke warm. The engineer from British has tells me that it is due to sludge in the central heating system and that I need to change the Heat Exchanger in the boiler. That will cost me £277 in addition to...
