Hi i am currently gas service and repair, havent really required any powertools, I have got pflush machine, looking to go a bit into installations, what set of tools would i need for just boiler swaps?

I am looking into sds drills and to be honest know. Nothing about them, ill need a core drill bits, just wanted to know what kind of sds i would need, does it need to be so powerful and if so what in the specs shall i look for, from looking a corded sds do i need high wattage and rpm if so whats the minimum requirement i need?

Same with cordless what power would be able to do the job, as im not sure a cordless would be able to do the job, i would like to get cordless too, just need get my head round

Thank you
 
GOOD CORDLESS SAY DEWALT BQ ABOUT 100
MEDIUM POWER SDS
CORE DRILLS, NOW GOOD ONES COST. IF STOLEN OR BREAK
YOUR HEART BROKEN
OTHERS WILL NOT AGREE BUT A CORE DRILL FOR 120 IS GOOD FOR FLUES AND WASTE PIPE. IF IT BREAKS OR GET STOLEN AFTER SAY 10 JOBS WHO CARES.
 
Sds drill, core drill, core bits, maybe a set of hole saws. That should get you started
 
Makita would be my advice bud I use my sds for core drilling and 7-24mm bits, their core drills are good but nearly £300 lid, set of core bits , get yourself a 18v cordless with 4ah batteries metal chuck version a 4"grinder for cutting flues, skill saw for floor boards , and a multi tool other than your hand tools and a couple of levels your good to go . good luck kop.
