    Best combi boiler for under £1000 supply only

    We fit nearly 100 intergas/atmos units a year. Look at the brochures... choose the hot water performance you want. Buy that one. We are also Worcester acredited - one of the greenstars would not be a bad option. Not as easy to maintain - but more common. I completely stripped a dry...

    Best combi boiler for under £1000 supply only

    Hope he's good at fixing boilers as well as installing them. I would get an Intergas/Atmos. None of the problems highlighted by the naysayers have any merit. Descaling the domestic side of the heat exchanger is simple if needed. Can be done with kettle descaler and a garden weed...

    Replacement boiler which?

    Agree although they lack the internal expansion vessel that the Atmos version has. However, that is 4" taller. Atag is the next on my list, but pricey. Then Worcester Bosch - who have done an awful lot of customer service improvements recently, although their warranty engineers aren't the...

    Shower Leaking - Plumbing Advice needed

    Does the cap that you have on there hold the water without leaking? if so then it ain't the pipe being deformed. Although I suspect either he cut them too short for the shower fitting, or for some other reason the tail is now too short to fit the shower. Either way - looks like tiles...
