I live in a flat and the boiler, presently sat in the corner of the kitchen, some inches from the floor, needs replacing as the current model, a Glowworm Micron, has packed-up. I have had someone come out to provide a quote already - he has given one to instal a 'Vaillant 415 Plus CH Boiler' as a replacement which, including VAT and for the boiler to be moved slightly - I would like it raised above the kitchen work unit, as opposed to below it - would come in at around £1300, including supply of the boiler itself. I would like to see if I can get a better quote. The job itself should otherwise be straightforward - the storage tank is around 4 or 5 meters away and backs directly onto the kitchen in an airing cupboard. I can happily source the boiler, although, if you can get it cheaper (it's likely to cost me around £670), that's fine. I don't necessarily need this particular model, of course - he suggested this or maybe another Glow worm.
