Combi Boiler

JayTee_3

Can anyone give me some advice about a Ravenheat HE 150N (T) combi boiler. I have been given a quote which I think is fair but I am receiving conflicting reports about this boiler especially engineers who have quoted for different makes. Your comments will be appreciated thanks.

Welcome to the forum.

I have no knowledge of the boiler, but Ravenheat has come in for a lot of criticism on MSE.

If you go to 'search' at the top of the page and enter 'Ravenheat' you will find loads of threads.

It shouldn't make a huge difference in the overall cost of a new boiler installation to get a boiler with a better reputation?

Thanks for the comments unfortunately my cupboard will only accommodate a 300mm depth boiler which the CSI 150 is - a real problem as the only alternative is the loft and I do not want it up there.

I think there are plenty of combi boilers designed to fit in a cupboard.

The Glowworm Flexicom CX has a depth of 280cm. The layout is designed so you don't need to remove the front facia, because the service panel drops down. If the wall is an outside wall, the direct flue can go straight out the back of the boiler, so you don't even need to have a chimney flue showing on top.
