£2.5K for a crappy combi!

So £900 of boiler and £1600 to fit it

That's the way of the world now, esp with Corgi Gassafe trying to spread as much 'dangle berries' as possible 

Still, a combi may well work for TD, if he remembers not to put on the washing machine when taking a shower

I've had the washing machine on, dishwasher on, flushed a toilet downstairs and had the shower running at the same time (I wasn't in all three places, obviously ) - shower still worked just fine, didn't burn me, didn't freeze me and the house didn't explode and my combi boiler didn't catch fire..

The bigger issue is when someone runs a hot tap in reality (I don't think most washing machines have hot water feed these days).

That and they are annoying unreliable things and far from suited to a place with reasonable length pipe runs.

A bit more on parts than £900.....the flue has to extended to go from the kitchen, thro a loft and out of a pitched roof. Everything is being ripped out (except rads and pipes) and replaced with new..plus magnaclean2 thingy and powerflush......that way im getting 7 years warranty on boiler  and 7 years labour warranty.

Boiler in the kitchen....bathroom next door.....no plumbing upstairs
