The (at least) 36 year old boiler has failed to start again today.
It is freezing here!
The small fan heater is doing an amazing job at heating up the lounge but it is going to cost a fortune.
I think I am going to replace the boiler with something newer. Just don't know what yet.
The house is too draughty for a heat pump.
Water pressure to the kitchen is fine (12l/m) so I am hoping that it will be suitable for a condenser boiler but I do like a powerful shower.
So what do I do - go condenser or stick with the standard boiler & hot water tank or stick with a standard boiler and go with a pressurised tank for improved shower performance (which is woeful at the moment)?
Boilers seem to cost about £2k at Screwfix and I guess an installer is going to get a discount.
What sort of cost should I be looking at for the install as BOXT want about £5k?
How long should it take to change out a boiler?
