I have recently had a new central heating system installed by gas safe registered engineer and there was a fault identified with the boiler, The installer arrainged for the manufacturer to attend so as to not nullify the guarantee.
When the engineer arrived 9/11/2010 he identified that the boiler had left the factory 3 years previously but the 3 year guarantee was valid and started when the boiler had been installed 29/10/2010.
The engineer could not identify a specific problem but has ordered parts in the hope of sorting the problem. A follow up visit was booked for 18/11/2010 to fit the parts.
Since his visit the boiler has not been operating properly from a different problem and has since stopped working altogether.
Having had these problems in the first three weeks of operation, I am not very confident with this boiler and feel there are inherent problems with the unit and ideally I want to have a replacement.
The boiler was purchased by the installer from a national DIY outlet, where do I stand and who should shoulder responsibility
Do I seek a replacement from the installer, the supplier or the manufacturer? And what is the appropriate actions I should take
