Electric flow boilers are an efficient alternative for properties where no mains gas is available or where flue issues stop installation of a gas boiler
have one of the pure shit wheel things that you have to fold down the wee tabs. an interface that was surely devised by a madman.
Thatās a programmer, not a thermostat.
That is what we have but thatās not a thermostat. That is a timer. Can you hand your engineer badge in at the door please.
itās the flue installation issues for me, mate.
got a gas one in there at the moment but apparently itās a completely out dated design, is unbelievably unsafe and could kill me at any moment without me realising.
oh aye so it is.
the thermostat is a knob next to it.
If you have an eternal soul you would realise.
I did not pursue this line of inquiry with the boiler repair man, a missed opportunity
How much is your electric boiler costing you? All in?
I used to think a new boiler would be about 1k (all in) but I am now thinking it will be between 2-3k (all in).
more than 2 but less than 3 at a guess? planning to get the man to move my washing machine into the boiler cupboard so that I can get a dishwasher while heās at it.

Had a very dull temp market research job for a week where I called up factories in Bavaria that made stuff that included a thermostat and chatted to engineers about how many thermostats of what types they got through in a normal week of production.
Was good however, in that the manager at the survey place didnāt speak a word of German, so let me just get on with it how I wanted.
Everything great comes from Bavaria ie themostats, Balonz, Reiberdatschi etc
Du bist doch kein SaupreuĆ, denn.
Iāll tell you whatās a really bad idea: a wireless thermostat.
Nothing more useless than a thermostat that you canāt guarantee is controlling the temperature in your house, because the wrong doorās open or itās a bit chillier than normal in the room with your boiler in.
Hahah I put that into Google translate to see what it said for Saupreuss, and it translates it as ābastardā rather than āPrussian wankerā.
