Hi everyone, Ive norrowd my choice of new boiler down to two models
Alpha CD32C and Ideal Isar 30. This is to replace my dead Servowarm
boiler.


Anyone have any experiance of the two models, who could give me their
experiance of either.

Early Isar models had problems but I have fitted one and it has been fine.
Most installers who have worked on offerings from these two makers would
rate Ideal as the better built.

Alpha are giving 5 year guarantees on their models having upped quality.
Not so long ago B Gas would not sell the Istar and Icos they were so bad.
Matter have changed there too. I would rate them about the same.
