All new boilers are condensing, by law in the UK.

You can get an exemption to fitting one but regs state it should be a condensating one, I've had one for the past three years and it does save me a shed load of cash.

At long last I am having new windows fitted to my flat, double glazing no less. Been waiting since Jan 2013. So I am a happy puppy. Craig. Craig, shouldn't you have posted this in the Windows Board. snigger

...Getting a new combi boiler next week as the back boiler flue is letting sumes back in to the living room. It's blocked by all accounts. Why are you hiding all your accounts in the flue? are you on a tax fiddle or something??

That boiler will save you money Craig. I'm assuming it is a condensating one. Nob, the correct name is a condensing boiler in case you are interested. We have one and very efficient it is indeed! Craig, do not use your boiler if you suspect fumes are getting back into your living room.. They are most likely to be carbon monoxide - an odourless, colourless and highly poisonous gas which can very easily kill without you realising it is happening. It converts the haemoglobin in the blood to carboxyhaemoglobin whereby the blood cannot then circulate oxygen around the body. Very toxic indeed.

Thanks Rogerman, that's what I meant, I had one fitted three years ago. Saves a shed load on gas bills.

The meter's been capped off according to the engineer who did the work. It's a pain to have to keep boiling the kettle for hot water, but less of a pain then being dead. Craig.

How many kettles for a bath. None Nob, buy the time I boil enough water for a bath, the water that's already in the bath would be cold. So strip was at the bathroom sink every night. New boiler should be installed next Thursday. Craig.
