Combi boiler - condensing - or not?
Hi - I'm new to this forum but would appreciate some helpful advice.
I live in a flat and am having the kitchen refitted, which means moving or replacing our existing boiler (Alpha Ocean Style FF - about 12 yrs old). I'm told that if we replace it we have to have a condensing boiler (new building regs), but I understand that there are problems with the plume from this type of boiler as we have a balcony roof above where the flue would exit, and it's close to a door and a window. The cheaper option is to just move the Alpha, but I'm worried this may affect it (cause leaks). Or can we get a new non-condensing boiler fitted? I've spoken to 4 different heating companies (incl BG) and have had different comments and advice from each. Any help much appreciated. Thanks. |
