Hi,
I've been offered an old oil combi boiler via a family friend which has ten years of regular servicing by an OFTEC engineer and is made by Grant (am finding out the precise model...). It's only being taken out of service as their village now has gas available so they're switching.
Cash is tight for us at the moment & we'd been looking around for a second hand oil combi for our own house. Are we wise to avoid one that's 10 years old or should a well made, regularly serviced example be a relatively good bet albeit perhaps not as efficient as a brand new condensing model.... I'm assuming a 10 year old oil boiler won't be as efficient... ?
Thanks,
Steve
