It doesnt say on the quote actually, so I'll check with the man. Thanks for flagging it up.Is it the 800 series boiler? Because they come with the adey filter and a 10 year warranty.
I'd check what your getting like.

Sounds like a Main boiler which is made by Baxi but only comes with 5 years warranty , it’s a lot cheaper than the Baxi 800 series which as pointed out has a 10 years warranty & the filter includedBaxi, 5 year warrenty, ADEY
We're moving the boiler location though so the new one is getting fitted in the next room along to where it is currently. Do you think the price seems ok?
Cheers, will do.Sounds like a Main boiler which is made by Baxi but only comes with 5 years warranty , it’s a lot cheaper than the Baxi 800 series which as pointed out has a 10 years warranty & the filter included
also check the output , whether it’s a 25 KW or 30KW , also has a factor in price
Thank you, definite food for thought.I paid £2100 last August, straight swap, 816 baxi with the filter, @Daffy was on his jollies like. You could do worse than ask him for a price.
Forgot to say although we had a brand new two pipe system fitted the house was left spotless everyday and there was minimum disruption at what was a very stressful time for usI'd definitely recommend him, he did my mam and dads for us and it made a refreshing change.
Turned up to quote when he said he would.
Provided the quote when he said he would.
Started the job when he said he would.
Came out straight away to fix a little niggle.
Now that may sound like nothing and is what you would expect but just wait till you start dealing with some of the shysters that are around
Nowt wrang with the Main 30 mind imo.Sounds like a Main boiler which is made by Baxi but only comes with 5 years warranty , it’s a lot cheaper than the Baxi 800 series which as pointed out has a 10 years warranty & the filter included

Yeah , they’re decent boilers for the money but obviously a lot cheaper than a 830 ( mainly down to difference in warranty )Nowt wrang with the Main 30 mind imo.
As for 10 year warranties, good luck when the baxi engineer visits. Heard about some right arseholes using any trick in the book to wriggle out of paying up on the warranty. One last week said he found signs of sludge near the f***ing magnaflow and the system was dirty.
I can get a 25 for under 600, a 35 for well under a grandWhat was it for ? Make , model etc
Got to look at the bigger picture
Their are huge overheads involved , accountant fees , vat , van payments , tools , running costs , certification etc etc
It’s not just the bottom line figure
Decent make / model is more than that
There’s been huge price increases in last couple of years
What make & model ?I can get a 25 for under 600, a 35 for well under a grand
Go electric? Or an alternative energy source?
Gas is being abandoned
Don't blame them, having your name on something that can blow up or kill someone should cost a fortune imoBoiler itself will be under a grand but they charge a fortune for fitting.
In the long run maybes but leccy prices are ridiculous. Said on the energy thread someone I know is paying £500 per month on leccy because they have no gas and everything is electricGo electric? Or an alternative energy source?

Correct. An air source heat pump is as expensive to run as a gas boiler. The whole things a f***ing sham.Don't blame them, having your name on something that can blow up or kill someone should cost a fortune imo

I know a lad who knocks out a straight swop Main 30 supplied and fitted £1600. All above board, the boiler is registered blah blah.I can get a 25 for under 600, a 35 for well under a grand
