VAILLANT SYSTEM BOILER

 

[gasafengineer]

we would also like a water softner (Harvey Water Softner). contacted wocesterbosch and was advised that their heat exchangers in their new boiler range have an aluminium heat exchanger and is guaranteed for 10 years. but if i installed a water softner then the guarantee would be immediately void as the saline content of the salt would corrode the aluminium heat excahanger!....

Either fill the system with unsoftened water or throw a couple of tins of bicarbonate of soda in the system , will raise the PH.

hmm i think i'm gonna have to decide on an ATAG as lawrence wanted me to go to B&Q and valliant although u guys are saying is also good i still have that bad stigma attached from my past experience!........ so ATAG it is
now can we answer the next question!.... which series?..... and what is the heat exchanger made of?

.... can anyone recommend another rolls royce boiler....

Do you mean overpriced, oversized, outdated and very poor value for money by RR boiler?
Your choice would be an AGA. Very prestigious, very expensive, hard to get parts for and most heating engineers don't work on them so labour will cost a few bob too.
If you don't care about the name and want something very good with equally good value for money: Viessmann 100-w.

This is not RR but the control system certainly is imo...

It's highly rated by a controls engineer 30 years in the trade who is usually in commercial work but builds and fits custom built panels for larger properties where financial constraints are usually not an issue.

 

[roguetrader]

atag heat exchangers vary with which ever series boiler you buy.
the A series has a painted cardboard heat ex whereas the more expensive Q series has a tupperware heat ex.
niether of theses will rot as quick as a worcester.

is your face really blue? or is it felt tip?
