Our client is based in the USA and rents a property (their UK home) where there was an old Ariston combination boiler in the cellar.

We advised them to fit a new Vaillant ecoTEC+ 831 combination boiler, because it is a well built unit and reliable for a lettings customer.  All our Vaillant installations benefit from a 5 Year manufacturer parts and labour warranty.  We have fitted a few hundred of the Vaillant ecoTEC+ combi over the past five years and found it to be a reliable product.

The system was fully Powerflushed, and the new boiler fitted.  A Vaillant ‘Plume Management Kit’ was used to divert the exhaust steam to a high level outside.

The old hob was replaced with a new Bosch unit, featuring an FSD.  Flame Supervision Devices are now mandatory on hobs fitted in rented properties.

We supplied a new Landlord Safety Certificate for the property.
