Re: The Vaillant is Valiant!
We don't have mains gas here either but our central heating is run by gas. We have bottled gas, our lovely gas man comes every other day. If empty bottles are left out he stops and replaces them. He's a really nice guy and will carry and fit bottles for people who can't manage. Our boiler is also a Vaillant, it was here when we bought the house in 1998, we came in 2000 and the boiler has been used every winter since then. This year extra radiators were added and the boiler checked over, still all good.18-01-2013, 11:49 PM

Re: The Vaillant is Valiant!
Between mine and yours Vaillant is receiving glowing reviews on here at least.The winds are getting up here in Scotland and it's probably below zero in the garage (where the boiler is located) but it keeps on pumping out hot water come hell or high water.
Yes I could probably save about £200 on my yearly gas bill by getting a new condensing boiler but I'd be spending near £2000 for the thing and then after that how many years would it last me? Another 23? I don't think so.
As long as that Vaillant is repairable, I'll get it repaired.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go and kiss it goodnight then toddle off to bed.
