Anyone care to recommend any particular current make/range?

I have read Ed Sirett's faq on picking a boiler but finding out which
of those features boilers actually have is hard work. e.g. Alpha have
been mentioned here but their very annoying website is not very
illuminating.


We've got an Alpha CD32C and it's brilliant. Can't understand why you're
having problems with the Alpha website. If you want tech. specs and
comparisons of their products, simply hover over "Boilers - High
Efficiency Range" and when sub-menu pops out, click on "Feature /
Technical Comparisons", then, in the right-hand pane, click on "Click
here to launch comparisons table"

I have that here printed out in all its fine colours, but it answers few
points in Ed's faq. e.g what is heat exchanger made from?


Worcester-Bosch sell the Greenstar range of aluminium silicon coated heat
exchangers. Great boilers.

For some of their boilers you can download pdfs with more info but not
others.
Why is their website cramped in such a small window? perhaps its designed
for pda users..


I managed to download the installation instructions. The heat exchanger is
stainless steel.
