thats a point manufactures still offer warranty on band b boilers, how does that work, who says you can no longer fit band b boilers, because no body seems to be listening.
 
its all a bit silly, you can still register the boiler with its manufactures and gas safe..

i cant remember who said now but if you're replacing a backboiler anything thats more efficient is ok to fit, like a band b, if replacing a B, it needs to go upto an A.. i think its gas safe that come out with that
 
yeh ~I heard that if the rads are over sized enough or the customers prepared to leave all the windows open to allow correct heat loss from rads,to allow boiler to keep to maximum efficiency,it is ok to fit band b as well :confused::confused::p

POTTERTON PROMAX 28 COMBI Boiler - Hot Water Issue
Hello, I am seeking some advice, I have a POTTERTON PROMAX 28 COMBI Boiler and I noticed yesterday that the water around the house is no longer warming up. The heat exchanger has been changed 6 months ago, so I do not believe it is that. Does anyone have any ideas on what it could be? Thanks
