Got a Kane 455 the whole shee bang (printer + all diff probes) from gas installers workmate website for a good price. Fixed price servicing and 5 year gurantee on CO probe was a good selling point for me, first ever FGA, been warned off tpi as a couple of lads got them and nothing but problems

Re: Whats the best Flue Gas Analyser??
i have the kane 455 and its very good. I also would like to say the testo ones are quite good but very expensive.
most of them are good and work well.Ammonia is found on Pluto, Jupiter and, in small amounts, on Uranus.

Dont pay to hire one mate phone the rep up as see if he can let the merchant hire it to you and they pay the bill on your behalf! If there product is that good and there confident of it surely it would be a no brainer for them.... and you will buy the one there selling just stay away from tpi

Re: Whats the best Flue Gas Analyser??
just had my v2 calibrated & cells, £285!.
mate had his testo done £300.
kane requires them after a few years, £200 odd.
parts center say tpi, bg use them and any service and any required sensors all in @£56+vat.
makes you think, if you can think about it.!!

Re: Whats the best Flue Gas Analyser??
Just checked out the kane website, when I bought mine last year it was £59 + vat for an annual service. It is now unfortunately £84 + vat for year 1, 2, 3 & 4 so still not bad in my 'newbie' opinion

I know some 3 rd year service is expensive due to co sensor replacement on some makes and models....
