Pulsacoil boiler replacement

Hi all,

I have been advised by engineer to replace the Pulsacoil boiler as it is leaking (it is over 10 years old).  I wanted to find out if anyone has dealt with (the only people I can find on line that do these boilers), https://pulsacoil.group/book-a-repair?  Are there any others worth considering? The price given for replacement is around £3500 with the various guarantees on the item.  Any advice would be really helpful. 

Thanks

    "Pulsacoil boilers are advanced thermal storage units that provide hot water on demand, primarily used in properties without a gas supply or where conventional water heating systems are impractical. These units store hot water in a tank and use a heat exchanger to transfer heat to the water supply when needed."

    Don't know about repairs, but a new one is about £1200 and I don't see how such simple replacing job can cost £2300(!).

    Pulsacoil is a brand name for a thermal store. There are several manufacturers each with their own options. As above, a brand new one should be £1-2000 depending on spec, plus fitting.
