LPG boilers: AGA vs standalone boiler

Hi folks,

Happy to expose myself as an LPG newbie with a question that I hope to get some views on.

We are in the process of buying a property with an LPG tank which has an AGA as the all-in-one boiler, cooker, etc.

Reading around I understand that to put it mildly AGA's are not the most efficient boilers out there and just as with a normal gas supply you get dedicated LPG boilers (conventional and combi).

Just wanted to check if people had experiences to share with using their AGA's in this way and/or switching to a more conventional boiler.

I would like to ensure we go the most efficient route and assume if we had a separate boiler installed we can still using the bloomin' AGA!

Thanks in advance.

    Best to wait and see how you get on with the Aga. It may not be the most efficient boiler in the world but the cost of a new separate boiler will outweigh that for many years. I still have my LPG Aga for cooking only in the winter and use a "normal" cooker in summer.
