and have you check ip addy its not a modd winding us up??????

I`m not mod and not winding anybody up - why would I? I`m just an ordinary guy who wants to buy best boiler available. I don`t buy installers/sellers sales talks, I always carry out my own research. I`m not plumber or heating engineer. I simply spent few days researching boilers, specs, technologies and spoke to few boiler manufacturers. Now I got some understanding what is what.
 
Your having a laugh mate first person I've heard worrying about fecking db level of their new boiler. what planet are you on because it aint the same one as most on here anyway:conehead:
 
Baxi Platinum 24 HE A

Seasonal efficiency % 91.1 - very impressive
Power consumption 155w - oh my Jesus Lord, are they serious?
9.8L/min@35 degrees - rubbish

No dB shown again. I assume at 155w it won`t be anything below 50dB.

Platinum isn`t really a platinum I guess.

I do care about my comfort. Why would I listen to the boiler noise if I can avoid that?

Vaillant ecoPro & Plus do not specify dB levels on their website, just "Quiet mark" approved. QM website also has no info on this boiler. But when I phoned Vaillant, turns out they produce 45 dB. Trying to make impression they are something super quiet, when they are far from that. Viessmann are below 40dB for example.

Does not matter which boiler you put in its never going to be silent, unless of course you leave it switched off which in your case I suggest as it might affect your comfort if god forbid your super dooper new stainless steel boiler makes a racket.
 
I suggest you speak to an Installer and get some advice and a quote and you choose the boiler because with the demands you have your never going to be happy with what is suggested. By the way expect to pay a few grand more due to your impossible spec your trying to work too and the stress your going to cause the guy. Personally no money would make me want to do the job with the way you've been on here.
 
I know I`m demanding customer, but hey - its my hard earned money and why should I waste it on medicore product, which directly affects my annual bills and every day living comfort?

Maybe I should organise boiler manufacturing? I would call it Ultimate Gold and it would have all the top specs and best quality components inside :)

It would be:

24kw
92.5% annual because it would have passive flue gas heat recovery
10.8L/min@35
1:10 modulation
Below 40dB when burning at max
Stainless steel HE +brass/copper components
Graphite seals
Colour 5" touchscreen
85w when burning at max, 5w when idle
