[Harvest Fields]

Which plumbing suppliers do you use? - We'll create a poll once we have a list

Ahhh I didn't see that but it is well overdue. I've started the thread in the mods forum but got side tracked. It took ages write all the names down. Loads more plumbing firms than tiling ones i do that one quite quickly.

Also, pretty much had this week off with my daughter and @Lou. Swapped our Fiat 500 for a Kia Sedona today so off for a nice drive tomorrow. Will sort all this out Monday.

 

[Harvest Fields]

Brilliant mate

 

[Lou]

Yeah we've had a really good week. And loving the new car! It's huge! Back to the grind stone Monday.

 

[moonlight]

ShaunCorbs you have been busy

 

[ShaunCorbs]

Well @Lou how's the car, no hidden problems / wheels or engine falling out?

 

[Pitty]

Vaillant for me

 

[muggles]

Hounsfield for oil

 

[masons]

baxi all day long

 

[Jane Carter]

For the best boiler, I will prefer Johnson & Starley no one else.

This has now been and gone. Good luck with the next one.

 

[Vee]

Vaillant, Worcester and Grant. Occasionally Baxi or Glowworm.

 

[sammathias]

Ferroli or ravenheap for the win!!!!!

 

[djchristoff]

Baxi for a budget boiler with 7yr warranty. I fit a lot of Worcesters, but i do like the Vaillants plus their warranties good.

 

[Rob Foster]

Most installed boilers just go to Bisria site and get the updates all done ..Worcs B sold 3m last year in uk

 

[AMGasServices]

Please add zanussi to the list it’s a rebadged logic.

 

[Rob Foster]

Now AMG this is a subject within a subject Which boilers are the same except the name and which ones share parts. Just like cars spare for one make are way more for some makes than others but are same. Windscreen wipers eg

This is a good historical survey, in that there will be loads of Worcester stuff cause historically they were the choice of the old gas boards and the habit took a while die off, and worcs now advertise heavily on telly like Renault but this might not make them the best choice Rob Foster aka centralheatking

 

[Spindle]

Yeah you're right. Incidentally the day after I posted that I saw two Alpha boilers.

 

[Robert Anderson]

I got a Ariston clas he 30 boiler fitted n have to say can’t compldin reallynefficient great hot water pressure from it standard 5 year warranty with additional 8-10 year add on and not at the higher end of budget, didn’t get great reviews but spoke to a guy who’s business is sub contracted to fix them forcwardanty n said they are decent they have cake a long way and had a bad name for a while but areddcent not sure you guys thoughts on that to be fair I know all fitters have their faves another guy a know swears by bosh etc it was just a thought on what the community thinks

 

[Robert Anderson]

Sorry few spelling corrections on last post lol stupid phone I’m sure you know I don’t mean cake n should be come lol

 

[Robert Anderson]

Also heard Ariston are trying to get the gas board to now fit their boilers

 

[Harvest Fields]

Also heard Ariston are trying to get the gas board to now fit their boilers

[Robert Anderson]
