I am currently renovating my new 2 bed terrace and am having a new combi boiler and radiators etc installed.
Which make and model should I go for, someone told me a Gloworm 30cxi is pretty good, any advice?
Cheers.

whatever size property you live you wont beat a Worcester boiler …as a builder its the only one i fit as its the most reliable and efficient ..Ive fitted one in our daughters house ..there one for every condition ..

Go for the best you can afford, Bosch (Worcester) is good,Vaillant are also good. Well any German boiler, the best.
Reliability is the most important thing.
Don’t be fooled into thinking a boiler is better because its 1% more energy efficient.
A broken boiler waiting for an expensive repair is useless.

Vaillant and Worcester are regarded as the better boilers at the moment.
If you get a Worcester accredited installer then you can get a five year warranty, if not you still get a two year warranty.
Just make sure it is a Corgi registered installer. Go on Corgi’s website and look for an engineer near you

from my experience any combi will at best “crap” and as no-one can tell which will last (i go out to 2year old combi’s that are needing major parts ) so go for the boiler that offers you the longest warranty parts and labour .the reason is if you look in most brands you would find the same components.and if live in a hard water area have a electronic descaler fitted also fit a magnaclean on the return pipe of your boiler this will collect most debris when the installer dosen’t flush the system properly.

Worcester Bosch and Vaillant are widely regarded as the best, the important thing for a long lasting installation, is that the system is cleaned properly and the water quality is right (should be less than ph 8).
