I apologise in advance, because i know that the simple question that i shall ask will have been asked a million times before, but times & opinions change etc, and i would be extremely grateful for people's views.

I should explain in advance that i know as much about plumbing, and building generally as i do about quantum physics...(less than nothing, by the way).

I am in the process of extending and rebuilding a 1930s detached house, which will end up being 5 beds, two bathrooms over three floors (inc attic room). I now need to select a boiler for this, to go with usual megaflo set-up.

Initially my plumber recommended a Keston...a quick look at the forum here led me to conclude that this wld be a bad idea, and this has been veto-ed. He has now come back recommending Remeha Avanta. What do people think - good idea, or should i insist on Worcester Bosch (or other?).

Whilst i wouldn't say that money was no object, this will be a drop in ocean compared to project as a whole.

ANy help or guidance would be very graetfully received. Thank you!
 
The Avanta is one of the best boilers on the market, Atag is another but very expensive.
 
How about one of these Kev, or do you think it may be a tad toooooo big.

:lol: :lol:

Rope or mastic around the sections, and a gasket on tappered nipples.

Them bars to hold it all together.
 
Any installer recommending keston as a first choice should be thanked for his time and abandonned; find another one as this one clearly either does not know what he is on about, or has a hidden agenda.
