Try contacting a local plumbing supply centre. I've just replaced the
hot water cylinder (450 x 900 indirect) which cost £97 + VAT making it
cheaper than most other retailers such as the plumbcentre, B&Q and the
like. My local suppliers also offered to accept all the unused fittings
back for refund, so the total for a new cylinder, HP ballcock and float,
few meters of copper pipe, and just the fittings to do the job came to
less than £180. Add the cost of the heating pack from Screwfix and the
grand total came to £240 for a fully working system. This was half of
the cheapest quote I receive for a local plumber for just the plumbing
side !!

Found that the hot water cylinder was leaking earlier this week and am
planning to replace tomorrow. I need an indirect combination hot/cold
one with ideally a 150/40 litre split. I was going to order off BES for
£196 but although they offer Saturday delivery they don't guarantee it
will arrive (my fault for not ordering earlier in the week!)
