Remeha Avanta Boiler Reliability Survey

[D_Hailsham]

This isn't a question about boiler control's so I hope it's in the correct Forum.

Sales of the Remeha Avanta boiler were stopped recently in the UK and I am trying to find out why. When I asked the question on a UK plumbing and heating Forum most of the replies, from installers, implied that they were no good, always breaking down etc. That it not my experience over the past 5 years.

I would be interested in the experience of any Avanta users on this Forum.

Have you found the boiler reliable?
If not, why not?

[D_Hailsham]

Over 900 views and not a single reply after four weeks. Does that mean no one owns an Avanta boiler? Or maybe they don't want to admit they own one!

PS I am interested in the experiences of all Avanta owners, not just those in the UK.

I haven't had any issues with mine in over 4 years of ownership.

Thanks.

Let's hope your reply starts the ball rolling.

I don't have one.
(but I do have a Nefit Topline HRC30CW5, which has had two burner replacements (factory warranty) in the first three years of service, and that machine is still on the market ).

grtz,

Just moved into a house with Avanta boiler installed, it seems it's been running for ~ 7 years with no issues. I noticed it really quite, but I can only compare it to one old boiler.

My boiler was replaced with a Remeha Avanta 28c + iSense thermostat in Dec. 2009. So far had no issues even when I let the water pressure drop to well under 2 bar after forgetting to top up the water level.
I do have somebody come around once a year to check/service it.

I live in NL so don't know about Remeha sales in UK. Over here it's highly regarded in all the reviews and is popular with over 1m installations.

Obligatory disclaimer: I've no connection with Remeha, don't own any of their shares and my granny doesn't sit on their board of directors...
