Hi,

I am about to have a new heating system installed in my house. The
choice of boilers seem to come down to either a Worcester-Bosch
Highflow 400 or a Vokera Linea Max. As both of these boilers are
about the same price and have very similar specifications is there
much to choose between them? I would be interested in any independent
reliability surveys or comparative maintenance costs.

I know neither of these boilers are condensing but I can't find a
similar condensing boiler and also the vent will be very close to a
boundry so a plume might be unpopular with the neighbours.

TIA, W.

I did a Google and here is a report from a user, Note the bath filling
performance.

Thanks for the quick response Tony.

The bumph on the Highflow states that
there are 60 litres of stored hot
water (@ 80 degrees). Other posts indicate
that this, bled down with cold
water will last very well @ 18 litres/min.
What happens when the onboard
store runs out? I assume it will drop from
18 l/min down to normal combi
type performance?

That sounds about right although it does
appear to start replenishing the
tank as soon as a tap is switched on.

We've got a *big* single bath, nearly
a double. Fills that without any
problems.

So, does that mean it fills the bath quickly
with no hint of it running out
of hot water?

Certainly doesn't run out of hot water but takes quit a while to fill purely
because of its size.
