Has any of you boiler experts got any thoughts on the best boiler between
Vokera Syntesi 35HE 120000 BTU
Glowworm 38 CXI HE 126000 BTU

water flow rate not an issue just best for reliability servicing etc the extra btu of glowworm appeals

thanks

Glowworm definately.

Good afternoon: OH has installed several Glow-worms in the past year (GW is now part of the Vaillant Group). The WB recommended by A.Heating has a poor flow rate at less than 10l/min (though you say this isn't a factor) and an aluminium heat exchanger (OH prefers stainless steel). Alpha boilers are becoming more popular and worth consideration. I wouldn't say that a WB is the CORGI's preferred choice...everyone has their favourites (and incentives to install a particular brand;) ) A boiler is only as good as its installation and annual servicing.

Made the mistake of getting a Vokera combi 8 years ago (Maxin 28e). After many, many faults / repairs we have just bitten the bullet and replaced it.

I don't think Vokera have a great reputation for comi boilers.
