So I had an accredited Worcestor Bosch installer round tonight and he advises me a combi on the wall of the garage or utility room is the best bet. It would be too much hassle to get a free standing conventional system up to spec with the tank probably need replacing too as well as possible asbestos flue. Hmm this is getting more complicated.0

I think you're right, the pressure is on to have a combi fitted as a conventional I have been quoted for is more expensive.0

Would asbestos panels and flue stop an engineer working on the boiler, I am hoping to get my old Potterton Diplomat 82 fixed tomorrow. Been quoted £80 for new thermocouple and supplied Honeywell gas valve?0

That's a fair price.
Asbestos only becomes an issue if it is disturbed. There are millions of tons of it left in place if suitably sealed and labelled.
Your engineer could refuse, but you wont know unless you tell him beforehand.0 -
You don't have to have a Worcester Bosch, though in my experience it can be hard to find an installer who will recommend anything else - I suppose they get a good kickback on them, which may explain why they're so expensive. That and all the advertising they do.0

Well the pilot is fixed but the bad news is the boiler is on its last legs as the heat exchanger is leaking and could last days or weeks according to the engineer.0
