At least i have a good company nearby to do the fitting and servicing. Been going a long time.
Pretty much set on a Vogue now, they seem to modulate very low as well. Just need to pick a size now.

Just make sure that they fit the Gen2 version of the Vogue. Few extra little tweaks in it, few bits ironed out and a really nice colour display too.

Worcester for me or Viessman look good. Just did their installer day course and I was quite impressed. Very easy to repair and can come with a 10year warranty for an extra £100. They have a stainless steel heat exchanger.
 
to just bring to light the problems Ideal are having and why they are trying to default on their warranties for their boilers.
picture says it all really and this is just one example of a heating engineers typical weeks work !!:thumbs_down:

thats TWELVE heat exchangers that have failed, and there not cheap!

I've installed 100,s logic and vogue never ever had a hot water heat exchanger fitted yet! It's all about the engineer doing the job simply do it properly flush thoroughly magna clean, in line descaler on every fit mini expansion on the cold if water meter or check valve..yep I'm expensive on my installs but it's done right...if customer wants to go for cheapest quote best of luck to em I get plenty of work!

Couldn't agree more! Although this is the main Hex.

Not sure whether to like this or agree?

Slip of the thumb bud apologies didnt mean to press the dumb button regards kop
 
Have fitted the Logics since there release and I have had maybe two heat exchangers fail in that time. Both were under warranty so changed no problem. We check by introducing food dye into the radiator and see if it turns up in the condensate trap
Or why not look at discolouration or smell the condensate water
 
The one vogue I fitted, there was a tremendous amount of plume. Even had ideal out to it who said it was completely normal.:mad::mad:
