    All previous tests have stopped(nothing to test)

    Current tests are a fan heater and immersion.

    Interesting the property response with minimal inputs.

    I checked the price on ours, that size (32kw) is around £1500 to buy, add on the flue kit, 2 Grundfoss pumps, the magnetic filter, various plumbing parts to connect, at least 10m of 22 mm copper pipe, flushing and refilling system, fitting condensate pipework, altering and repairing brickwork for flue, a days labour for the expert and assistant, and removal of all debris, we reckoned £3000 was reasonable.  And we know this guy does a good job, having used him before.

    Could have had a different boiler at a slightly lower price of course.   12 year warranty on this one, which will "see us out" !

    You have a 32kW heat-only boiler? Where did you say your castle was located?
    But, yes, £3k in your case was not 'unreasonable', but still a nice earner.
    Fair do's - GM4L will also have a new condensate run, flue changes and stuff too.
    Can be a bit chilly at times up here in the frozen north!  We like to be warm at our age, and to have a fast warm up time. The castle is a total of 280 sq m over 2 floors, with some high ceilings and quite a lot of glass on the front elevation.
