HI ALL Well I just want to thank (NOT) the IDEAL engineers who came out via Homeserve to fix our boiler......and left it in a worse state than before....I don't joke here. Just over a week ago, when an IDEAL guy was out to it - who had been here before - shut down our boiler due to a...

HI ALL An update on the saga of our duff Ideal boiler. Last night 11/12/09 we had someone from Ideal to try to fix our boiler again......and then he turned the goddamned off - I WENT BESERK! It was the last straw that broke the camels back! This time there was a problem with the flue so...

HI ALL IDEAL? Inventing a decent boiler? Maybe when hell freezes over! :mrgreen:

HI KEVINDGAS I speak just from a customer point of view as I'm not an installer, but I'll tell you what, it's frightening how many people on here have massive problems with them and some only lasting a couple of years......shocking! I'm sure IDEAL will recommend them though, but isn't that...

HI ALL I'm surprised my Ideal Isar lasted as long as it did....now it is failing after 4-and-a-half years. Started switching between 0 & D on the display with fan running - no burner (it thinks there is hot tap open) there is NOT! The boiler has now got a leak and the display has gone...

HI Didn't realise that I had "hijacked" someone's thread! Sorry if that is the case. Just making my point that's all!

HI ALL Just a little update for you! Now the boiler is leaking again and I'm going to get a phone call from Ideal tomorrow to arrange an appointment. THEY ARE GONNA GET IT WITH BOTH BARRELS! We are just waiting to hear back from the heating engineer to get a date set for the new...

HI KEVINDGAS When the time comes around, I'll see what I can do regarding a few pictures! :mrgreen:

HI THANKS FOR ALL REPLIES! The boiler has been serviced every year since 2005. Like I said, 4 and a half years of great operation.....then it all starts coming down like a house of cards. The sooner we get the new boiler in the better - just waiting of Homeserve coming out to this...

HI :D I'm a forum newbie! Just want to vent my anger over Ideal combi boilers. We had ours installed by a company who were asking people if they were sick and tired of cowboys and clowns not doing the job properly - they should take their own god-damned advice! After 4 and a half...
