Unvented cylinder size

[Notagainpike]

Is there a place on here to find a local chap to me?

Where are you might help

Tbh i'd go off local recommendations from people who have actually used someone. Don't use Facebook or CheckATrade.

Agreed. Alternatively, if that doesn't work, try the cylinder manufacturer's website. They'll usually list several 'approved installers' for your area. They'll have done the manufacturer's product-specific training and you may get a longer warranty if you use them.

1900 labour for two days two blokes, minus the spark....
Seems rediculous to me...

Thats purely the labour content.inc vat. I have the cylinder, they say to supply pipe and fittings. Plus 1 zone valve.
Change y to s plan.
Move mag filter, as apparently its only on heating return and doing nowt for the boiler.
Raise f+e tank in loft.
Fit cylinder in loft on platform ive built.
Pipework to be run up new airing cupboard wall. Its a blank canvas in my book...

Am i so out of touch with life in 23!!?

I would say 3 days with lagging and the discharge pipework that runs externally u less you have a soil vent up there

Depends where you are. But we’re billing out at £300+VAT per day per man, plus your materials. So it’s probably not a million miles away.

Also I would recommended sealing the system as the cylinder is in the loft high chance of pumping over

3 days for 1 man?
NO, no soil vent, but there are easy options for discharge i would think...
