    Solar Panel (s)

    i have a pair of Viessmann flat panels on my dads house. Been in 3 years and no problems yet. everytime i service boiler i go up on roof and give them a quick rinse to clean any dirt that might be on them. Although Viessmann claim they do not require cleaning. Think the Worcester panels are...

    Solar Panel (s)

    Just my opinion thats all. I have seen better solar systems on the market thats all i am saying. Good effort by alpha but most of these manufactures who have just jumped on the band wagon have very little experience in comparision to the likes of other manufactures which have been in the game...

    Solar Panel (s)

    The only downside to the Alpha solarsmart that i can see, is that the hot water store is only 80 litre or might be 50 litre not sure on exact amount, but the point is when the sunshines you want to collect a lot more than that. I currently have a 300litre oso solar cylinder and 1 day it might be...

    Vaillant combi boiler VCW GB 242 EH

    worth checking the differencial valve opens. Black plastic valve facing you when you take front cover off. Also make sure there is no air in the system as they will not light up until it is fully purged.

    Viessmann boilers (Vitodens 300)

    The vitoronic 200 fits inside the boiler and the Vitotrol 300 is the remote programable room stat that you might fir in your kitchen or hallway, lounge etc. The vitotrol 300 is connected back to the boiler via the KM bus lead. Good piece of kit you have there pal. :wink:

    Viessmann boilers (Vitodens 300)

    The staff are trained! Probably more trained than other companies. I mean most other manufactures copy technology from the likes of Viessmann. But you might ring up about a solar heating problem and talk to a man who is clued up on heat pumps. So they all have there areas. I mean i went on...

    New combi boiler installation.

    Well if it is a gas boiler it needs to be registered with CORGI by the installer who fit it. Then you recieve a certificate throught the post from CORGI. Then the log book needs signing off by the registered installer as well. Or if its a DIY job then good Luck

    Viessmann boilers (Vitodens 300)

    that was the problem it took them approx a week to come out and repair it. And about a dozen phone calls chasing them up. If they would of sent me a gas valve i would of fit it myself but they insisted on getting an engernner out it. And it was a sub contractor who ended up coming out. I have 2...

    Viessmann boilers (Vitodens 300)

    i have a Vitdens 300 26Kw in at my own house. The gas train(Valve) went down on it and was still under warranty. Like others said Viessmann 1st class products but 2nd class service im afraid. They are resonable straight forward to fit like any other boiler. Only difference is with this...

    Ravenheat boilers - what do people think?

    to be honest there are far better boilers on the market for that kind of money. Off the top of my head the Broag Remeha Avanta plus 28C (28Kw) can be picked up cheaper than £845. They also do 35Kw and a 38Kw version too for extra cash of course. Ravenheat are ok but they are not the most...

    Who manufactures the best combi?

    Viessmann Vitodens 200 is the best Combi i have come across yet although for value and size flow rate etc i would reccomment either the Vaillant mentioned earlier above or a Broag remeha Avanta Plus 39C. This will give you 17litres a min providing you have decent water main. :wink:
