Hi Agile, Agile-you have to continually email these ebay sellers, we have been down this route a few times. 9 out of ten when contacted wont ship to aussie, not worth their time or hassle. Most will not post, I have done this. fair enough. Fair enough, I have answered this in a previous...

mickyg- Re looking at ATAG today. They have a far better effeciency rating which makes us want the unit straight away, but others have said spares etc are a problem. Worchester has Bosch behind it who are big in Aussie. Why dont more plumbers install and push ATAG in the UK if thats the best...

hi Holty- Each state of aussie different with regs, but all similar. Asking a plumber today he said pipework can be external if needed. Plenty of it on our house and some done recently. The English plumber we know had to do a refresher course some years ago when he first came over. A bit of...

bengasman Well we have two guys from our Company who came immigrated from England a few years back, they both say cost of living in aussie is about half. Wages in proportion, but their view is Plumbers on a slightly better kick here all things condsidered. One an ex plumber. We already...

when i say install, I mean replace an old boiler. Straight where the last one came off. Just minimal pipework. Plus commisioning new boiler cost 150 quid. Plus materials if needed, copper etc. Plastic is used under floor and walls in aussie, not copper. Copper only for exposed work. Plastic...

LHT1-0450 NG-ID,Luna HT Indoor Nat. Gas 45Kw. 2500 pounds plus installation. It would have a different model number if available in the UK. Is the Baxi worth the Money ?? Most aussies say no. Hence I need a reliable cheaper boiler, and mine and my partners search for a great boiler with...

agile-tony ,my replies to a few things [ not true, you can come on a points system, or you can have a certain amount of assets. Or yes be employed by another Company, you do not need to be here five years to run your own buisness, this is quoted by some immigration agents but not enforced...

glasgowgas if you have Fernox f1 or F3 in 500ml bottles Im sure you can sell it to Aussie for a good profit on ebay. It must be listed under Hydronic as that is where any aussie sells or buys Boiler rated materials. Have a look at some stage , I am sure any UK resident would be surprised to...

mickyg-yes rinnai are big here, but only for hot water boilers. Not heating. Actually they are huge with their units. Very very reliable, an example for their instant hot water units, a plumber I know has put in he thinks "600" or so over the last ten years, and not one service call. Note they...

warranty will be established when we set up contracts with manufacturer. we already do this with other products. Manufacturers are often keen to spread their word and product. Approval will be given after we submit the product for local certification. spares arranged. not to hard, one company...

glasgowgas, we will talk to the manufacturers in length re contracts etc, just working out which manufacturers we wish to approach. Seeking advice from a variety of sources, but installers and service personal in our opinion is one of the best ways. We import other products and the manufacturers...

bingobongo, there is a market for the condensor boiler, the reason the uptake is so slow is the price. If we can lower it by a third or more which we think we can do easily, we can move quite a few units. Import tax is only ten percent. Even buying the units retail in the UK we can make a...

I have looked up all the past threads of best boiler and I see its a long topic. But most recently the Worcester Greenstar seems to have a great reputation. For a heat only, either the 30 or 40 Greenstar model, would any engineers or plumbers put this at the top of their recommended install...

quote-why do I want to know ?? please read the post again ? when/how often should service take place ? what should be done ? thats why I want an expert opinion

Could any boiler engineer or plumber tell me what should be done on a routine maintenence service for a heating boiler. We are told to get one every two years ? is this right ? should it be every year, every 3 ? Also it seems every different plumber I have seen either does nothing, looks...

Why would you need heating in Australia? :shock:Air conditioning. Maybe In Melbourne and tasmania, two of our states it gets cold. Not UK cold but cold and wet. 0 Celcius, for a while, hot insummer 45 celcius But we need heating for 4 months of the year. Only Melbourne or Victoria really has...

hi I am new to this forum We are in Australia and have just moved into a house with a SIME external Boiler. Just wondering to they have a good reputation for heating. We are running 7 panels but panel heating is not common at all in Australia due to the weather and Boilers/hydronics are very...
