Baxi duo tec 24 or Glowworm ultracom 24cxi???

[Help22]

hi,

i need help i am looking to replace my old myson apollo boiler with either one of the 2 boilers above.

can anyone recommend which one i should go for?

has anyone got any of the above and had any problem?

i am looking to get the boiler from Mr Central Heating because they are doing a good deal with rad valves and inhibitors etc. has anyone used them before?

any help would be appreciated.

Much of a muchness really, both mid range boilers, same warranty, similar Gianonni heat exchangers.

I personlly would fit the Glow Worm as I can offer a full 3 year warranty on them, whereas Baxi only give 2.

personally wouldn't fit either! would look at a Vaillant
but if you want them then i would go with the poxy batterton

Valliant are much more expensive.

you guys recommend Viessmann Vitodens?

looking to spend £600-£700 on the boiler.

For that sort of price I could supply an ATAG E22C.

THE best boiler on the market, in terms of quality and reliablity. Call them and ask for your nearest 'Select Dealer'

do you understand what kind of hot water performance a 24kw combi will give you? You currently have a conventional system with cylinder I presume. Whats the reason for changing?

Dave so how long has that ATAG been out.

no i have just been told that i require a 24kw 80,000btu boiler.

the house is a 2 up 2 down.

the reason for the change is that currently i have a really old boiler that is costing me too much to repair each time it breaks.

It's been around for a while now, but the special prices are new

if you want to fill a bath in a sensible time, I would be looking at 30kw

i bought a 40kw duo tec last week for 790 plus vat.hot water is brilliant.Have a look at the 28 duo tec for the sort of money you want to pay.Or check out the main 30 eco, basically same boiler(different heat exchanger)but cheaper.
