Worcester Bosch Highflow 400 Troubleshooting

They installed half the original boilers but they said that the company that installed the ones on my side of the building did not do a good job. When I contacted them before they would not take it on as they said they only took on systems that they installed. The last company said that if I went with them they would also do any repairs needed to the central heating system, it has not been easy to find anyone to maintain it successfully. It has one family bathroom and two ensuites - it also has underfloor heating.

It is an apartment in a block of 8 which was a new build all with the same boilers. This firm and the last one are approved Worcester installers.

I am still waiting for the third quote - not happy they have not sent it yet. If you go thru WB's site it will give you a list of approved installers in your area, this boots the warranty upto 8 (iirc) years. Just tell them you're interested in a new boiler and would like a quote. Were in a 3 bed house, 1 bathroom, but with a few more rads than normal and we fitted a WB 30CDiĭo You really need such an expensive boiler?Īs for paying for a quote? Tell them to jog on. The type of boiler you need will depend on the size of property, number of rads and bathrooms. Looking on the WB site the highflow 400's were discontinued a long time ago, the newer similar ones are these:Īnn according to WB, these boilers have been specifically developed for larger two bathroom properties where there is a heavier requirement for heating and hot water. Is this a flat/maisonette or just a house with many floors? Won't be able to respond to any questions until later as I have to go out now for a couple of hours.īoiler sounds REALLY expensive, is it a huge property? I am getting a couple more quotes tomorrow. It has been working fine until this weekend when I realised that pipes were getting hot and that the boiler kept firing up for no reason. Opinion as to the quote please, and do you think it is likely that a new boiler is required. When plumber called round he said that there was a leak and corrosion in the pipes inside the boiler (which I could see) so he said boiler on the way out. The problem I called plumbers in for is that I need a new diverter valve as when central heating is off, the pipes are still getting hot. Also, boiler is in a very difficult position - I have been told it will be 2 days work.

I am on the third floor too and have been told scaffolding will be needed to attach flew to outside wall which could cost up to £500. I've been quoted £3800 to remove old Worcester Highflow 400 combi boiler and fit new Worcester 440.
