Default Which? Boiler test results

Why didn't they like Worcesters?
Every fitter I come across seems to swear by them (Ok, maybe easy to
fit...?)


Having just had a glance at the non subscription bits, I get the
impression that they are not too on the ball anyway:

"Nearly all new boilers are now 'condensing' types. Condensing boilers
are far more energy-efficient than traditional boilers, as they
cunningly reuse heat that would otherwise be wasted.

Some heat generated by traditional boilers disappears up the flue in the
form of hot waste gases. But condensing boilers use some of the heat
from these flue gases to heat water, making the boiler far more efficient."

That would be a "woosh" then ;-)
