Hi All
I'll be seeking 3 x quotes from local heating engineers to decommission and remove a back boiler, replacing it with a combi to be installed in the adjacent kitchen. I want to go for a middle of the range boiler in terms of manufacturer i.e. not the cheapest not the most expensive. If this makes sense, I want the 3 quotes to be meaningful i.e. close to like for like in terms of components. One company might stand out as offering good value but this might be due to them quoting for a bargain basement / not very reliable boiler so not a true comparison if the others quote for higher quality and more expensive boilers.
To that end, should I simply advise the companies I want them to quote for a middle of the range boiler and leave it to them, or should I go as far as to stipulate a make of boiler? And if the latter, what brand would you suggest?
Thanks.
