Replace pcb on Potterton Suprima 100

Following up on my thread on gas boiler options & recommendations, a review of the forums looks like it could be expensive !

It appears that an option for me is to replace the pcb with a reconditioned one. Obviosuly no guarantees that this will last me another 10 years (!) but if for low cost it keeps me going for a while I'll be happy, especially in these straitened times.

I see on ebay that I could get one of these delivered for about Eur60

My question is - any idea what a registered gas installer would charge to install this, if I source it ?

Would imagine if he's any way decent you could couple it with your service and pay 20 euro more (if any more at all) would only take 15 mins more on a service call

Thanks DGOBS

- so estimate for the service plus this Eur20 will be approx ?

as I said, assuming he's a decent guy!

Would also be with the understanding that the installer would not
stand over anything that happens because of said pcb board, or
supply any kind of warranty on the work (as you supplied a reconditioned board)

thanks DGOBS

what should the standard service cost ?

Was going to go ahead & replace with a new pcb (as no registered installer would touch my to-be sourced reconditioned pcb), cost incl service Eur490

Scratch that idea

Turns out the pcb parts box the engineer brought out had the following printed on it

Bummer, seen the notice on it before, just never come across one!

Just had new condenser boiler to replace Potterton after 10 years and lots of money spent on it for the past few years. Got a grant for the boiler so it was not too expensive. 25 rads in house so large output cost me €700 after grant from SEI Ireland I see a good reduction in my gas bill for the past 3 months since installation.

- what boiler did you get installed (brand, size)
- who installed it
- am I correct in saying that it cost you Eur1,400 all in to replace your boiler ?

I am currently evaluating quotes to replace my Suprima 100 (100,000 btu), & have a quote for a similar size

Baxi Eur2,100
Baxi Eur2,900
Viessmann Eur2,700, but this includes internals work to facilitate claiming SEI grant of Eur700, so net Eur2,000
