Which boiler ?

I am going to have my old combi boiler replaced, but I can't decide which new boiler to go for.

I have narrowed my choices to two boilers:

Vaillant Ecotec Plus 837

and

Worcester Bosch Greenstar 30 CDI

Can anyone please tell me which one is better and more importantly, more reliable ?

i.e. Which one will last longer before it breaks down ?

Also, would you be willing to install it and at what price ?

(Please leave your contact details)


Thank you

I personally have a Vaillant Ectoec plus 837.
I only use/fit Vaillant boilers, tad more expensive, but reliability (if installed correctly), second to none imo

Both are very good boilers, but the Vaillant has the better hot water performance so that is the one I would go for.

Cost About £230.00 inc vat to change. Plus you would need TRV,s fitted to the rads if they do not have them at a extra cost.

We are based in Durham but can travell at 20p/ml
