which burner?

[texasjim]

hi guys newbie here. i live in small 3 bedroom chalet bungalow. I have an oil fired burner feeding 9 radiators and its had its day. Rather than getting the local plumber to pick up a burner and install, i was looking some info on which burner should i go for. thanks in advance Jim.

Riello or Bentone would be your best bet. Riello parts are abit more expensive though, if it was me personally i'd go for a Bentone

Are we talking burners or boilers?

Do you mean entire boiler? If only burner I would agree with AaronC 100%. Benton burner, simple, reliable & easy to work at. Riello oil pumps rubbish & expensive.

sorry guys, yeah im talking bout replacing the whole boiler.

If you mean entire burner, then you need condensing boiler. Grant Vortex is well made, but go for the 26 kw one as it is better than the smaller model. Sadly, the Grants use Riellos.

Are we talking combi or heat only? Combi would be Worcester Heatslave, heat only Camray system.
