  • My opinion, Alpha CD24C or Vaillant Ecotec 831. Both are 'A' rated and have stainless-steel main heat exchangers. Both are very reliable in my experience and are packed with good features.
  • A key feature you may wish to consider is the size. If you use a shower directly from the combi boiler consider the flow rate per minute. 12 Lt./min is adequate, 15 Lt./min is better. Also, maybe save money by buying the boiler yourself, you buy flue and programmer separately. Lots of good makes to choose from. I have a Worcester 35 CDI and I am happy with it.
