    Solar Water Rough Costs

    IMHO solar water is a waste of time and money, look into installing solar that not only can heat your water, but can also contribute directly as a preheater to your central heating as this gives a much better return on investment.

    Noisy condensed boiler

    If the boiler has not been correctly setup with the right nozzle, pressure, air, head settings it can resonate a low base tone (would drive you mad) Sounds like it needs a proper setting up (flue gas, pump pressure etc checked)
