New Boiler Advice

[GraRob]

Vokera Vision 25c versus Ideal Esprit 24 ? Both are similar prices. The Ideal has a 5 year warranty & Vokera 7 years.

I've kinda gone off Vokera

Thoughts please?

The ideal is the best of the two.

Thanks

The Vokera is the best of the two, ask the same question ten times you will get a different answer every time

I work for Vokera so that's out the way. What's the boiler it's replacing? The Vision C has our traditional pipe arrangement return, flow, gas, hot, cold. The new Vision Plus has the more UK orientated arrangement of flow, hot, gas, cold main, return. That makes for an easier, neater install for the fitter.

Personally I'd go for the Unica i 28 or 32 or evolve 24C, 28C if it's R,F,G,H,C and the Vision Plus 35C if it's FHGCR. Ease of servicing but of course more money.

There's a webinar on the new Vision Plus on Tuesday next at 7pm which you can tune into if you're interested. I'll find the link and post it later.

Thank you. Much appreciated.

I'll ignore the other, usual snyde comments on here.

Vokera or Ideal or the best of the rest.

By that I mean Vokera and Ideal are only two out of dozens of boiler manufacturers and suppliers in the UK.

Between Vokera and Ideal I would always choose Vokera from a reliability,service,repair point of view.Based on taking them to bits for 20 years.

Thanks, veering back to Vokera, more so as it's easier to fit an RF thermostat, which I need due to location.

Voltage independent please.

 

[GraRob]

Voltage independent please.

Ok, I think....

From the two terminals in the boiler 24 volts out through the stat then these 24 volts come back. Don’t connect 240v pr the board is toast.
