Baxi Duotec 40 vs ATAG A325EC X

I am looking to fit a new boiler and have narrowed it down to the the Baxi Duotec 40 HE and ATAG A325EC X

I can get both for the same price, fitted, and the load (i.e. shower / bath/ sinks and radiators) is within the range of acceptable for both boilers.

The Atag is new, so not that many people have had as much experience with them.
I just saw one fitted.The feedback from the engineer was high praise indeed, and, internally, it all looked like high quality, easily serviceable components.

I don't understand the use of a secondary head exchanger and other differences which make it harder to compare direct flow rates, I just want to maximise the hot flow of water even if someone else happens to use a sink while I am in the shower, keep bills down and have a boiler that lasts 10 -15 years from now so long as I get it serviced.

P.S. The water pressure is above average in the area, enough to benefit from to 40kw output (on the Baxi).

I am also being sold on the Intergas Combi Compact HRE 36/30 - I am told the are uber-reliable

  • both excellent boilers, out of the two I'd go for the Atag (I've fitted 46 of those in the last 12 months), also look at an Intergas boiler
    I'm only here while I wait for Corrie to start.

    You get no BS from me & if I think you are wrong I WILL tell you.
