If the boiler is purchased from an installer that is registered on Vaillant's Advance installer scheme, you will get 7 years warranty. Have a look on Vaillant's website for an installer in your area. They would probably advise on some better controls too.If I did have them install it, before they came round I’d replace the spur myself, supply and fit the mag filter, tell them to forget the system 'clean' and Hive control and borrow my mates scaffold tower and have it up and ready for them! That’ll save nearly a grand! Don’t know why but in my mind I had a max price of £2,500 but I think an independant will come in even less than that.
Tell me this: Would you feel it out of order if I were to buy my own boiler and mag filter and just get a price from a gas-safe bloke to fit it all in and register it (that’s what I did with my last one although he was a customer of mine at the time) or is that a bit too cheeky?
They are improving then back in the day of being an independent contractor for them they were 40-50% more than local installers but they offered interest free credit which was really unknown them daysseems about 20% over priced. So about right for British Gas
