Boiler choice - recommendation

[Barryscotland]

Any recommendations on boiler makes? We bought an expensive Worcester green star when we renovated our old house and had 4 breakdowns in 4 years so this time I’m thinking is there any point buying an expensive make and looking at a cheaper valiant or alpha, or is this false economy?

 

it’s a 24kw heat only boiler we are looking for

I've got an Atag combi, it seems well made, nice and quite.

 

They do a system boiler i24S also

I'm waiting for our Ideal Icos to eventually reach retirement (not a single fault in its 14 year life so far but I can't expect it to last forever) after which I'll be going for an Intergas. They appear to be highly specced but very low component count and easy to repair. As of 2018 they said they hadn't had a single reported failure of one of their heat exchangers. They fully support Opentherm too so give a good choice of independent controllers rather than tying you in to the boiler manufacturer's own offerings like many do (e.g. Worcester and Baxi) if you want fully modulating control.
