Quote for GCH

Shooglepops

Does this quote seem reasonable? Our flat is 1st floor with 3 bedrooms and eventually 2 bathrooms. We've got a boiler for hot water but no central heating just now. Flat is heated by 1 gas fire at the moment so we need to sort it soon really.

Always get 2 quotes, if 2 bathrooms go with the better hot water output.
 £250 between 7&10yrs warranty  is it worth it? IMO yes
have you thought about pressurised cylinder ie magaflow etc for your hot water

Hot water output is reliant on adequate cold water flow rate.

If the flow rate is only 11 litres per minute there is no point specifying a 15l per minute boiler.

I would presume the gsi  tested the pressure and  measured the flow rate before submitting a quote.
