well I went on the site, entered my make and model of boiler and
it so old
it has no grading (but likely to be less that 70% efficient)

But it then requires me to buy from a dealer rather than purchase
off the shelf at B&Q etc.....

so I save £ 400 by getting a rebate, but pay £ 2000 to British
Gas for the
privilege.

Anyone found the work around yet?

Do you have a link to the site you mention?

http://www.homeheatingguide.co.uk/ef...FUgA4wodDzibrQ


Doesn't even list mine.
Stelrad Ideal W2000 RS60 GC No 41 415 89
I can't find anything via Google either.
I have emailed Ideal to see if they can tell me a rating.


They only seem to have recent-ish models on that site - certainly for
Baxi - don't know about others.

Get it from the official source! http://www.sedbuk.com/

Tried to search their database and it was as much use as an udder on
a bull!

Yes, sorry - I'm sure it had used to be better than that.

I think someone has already drawn your attention to:
http://www.ofgem.gov.uk/Sustainabili...ers%20List.xls
which contains a list of all G-Rated boilers. One of the entries is:
Caradon Ideal W2000 rs60 4142189 GAS 65


which looks like your boiler except that the 4th and 5th digits of the GC#
are different. Are you sure that you're quoting the correct number for
yours?
