Hi,
Read a lot about Potterton Pumas on here, but don't know much about plumbing so hope you can help.
I have a Potterton Puma and the pilot light goes out regularly when I use the washing machine/shower. There's obvious moisture in the pressure gauge, but no pressure problem.
It's about 8-9 years old, has had 2 PCB replacements in the last 6 years.
The engineer I called has quoted £500 to replace 3-4 parts (gauge, hot water regulator(?) etc), plus £500 to descale, but also said it wasn't worth keeping and I should buy a 14L Vaillant for £1800 including installation.
Can any of the experts on here tell me if this is a good deal? Or what I should do? Thanks.
