• Supply and install Worcester 250L unvented cylinder complete with expansion vessel and water control pack.

Impossible question to answer blind, get other quotes.

Surely controls have to be supplied under boiler+ ...?

Edit: unless he insists you have them and is asking you to choose your own and he’ll install..?

Seriously ?

Worcester 40cdi.... Sledge hammer to crack a walnut.

Over sized.... Under flow volume.....

It'll be split on the heat exchanger within 24 months.

Sounds like you need to get a install guru in who can explain heat loss. Energy efficiency. 21st century control.

The boiler does sound a tad oversized but it does sound like a newbuild project.

Thanks guys, I realise it's a "how long is a piece of string" question, yet thought I'd get at least a ball park understanding. It's for all intents and purpose a new build so everything a black canvas and easy to install all piping etc.

I've had another guy out tonight anyway that does baxi as valiant so I'll see what he comes back with and compare.
