I am a registered gas safe engineer and would never touch an old Ravenheat boiler with a 10 foot bargepole. However recently I had to fit a replacement boiler for a landlord and as usual he wanted... more

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Messy installation

    Since moving into our house we have endured an evil, cantankerous and mischievous household item, loosely termed as a central heating boiler. We had other names for it !! After years of deep seated grief and mal intent, it started to play up even more than usual by losing ignition. A work colleague who formerly worked for British Gas maintenance cleaned every tube on the contraption, but warned us if it went again to dump it. We suffered the indignation for another year until in exasperation we called a plumber for a quote. The plumber was a family friend, who said the old boiler was ... more

    3 Stars Ravenheat CSI85 combi boiler - refusing to fire up 12/03/2010
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Cheap to purchase, neat, normally performs well

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Greater complexity may result in more problems

    I have inherited this boiler with the recent move to our new home (last September). It was installed in 2005 and the previous owner said they had had one small problem that was fixed and that has not recurred. The boiler in my previous house was more traditional and very relaible. I liked the idea that this one, being a condensing boiler, could save on fuel bills. However, when the recent cold weather arrived it refused to fire up reliably first thing in the morning and the flame failure light would come on. Once that happens it will always sit and wait for attention. Switching it off and on ... more

    1 Star Quick review of Ravenheat Condensing Combi Boiler by joolsandleo 01/08/2007
    We have had a ravenheat boiler now for just over three years and all i can say is thank god i've got insurance with scottish gas. The boiler breaks down at least four times a year. I would have spent hundreds getting it fixed by the heating engineer that fitted it. We only had it four months the first time it broke down, that is never a good sign. If i could afford to buy another one i would take the ravenheat boiler and put it too the rubbish tip, best place for it.

    Advantages Advantages Long Warranty, Reliable so far, Low fuel costs, competitively priced, Flow rate, Size

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None so far

    This Review is from a non technical aspect, but from a my personal point of view. When my boiler went last year I called a local plumber form the yellow pages and got him to come round and give me a quotation for replacing it. Me being me I decided not to settle for just one quote but to get a second and third opinion, I was shock to see the variance on prices between boiler manufactures but what suppressed me more and more was the degree of "bitching" about different manufactures from one plumber to an other, I studied what had been said by them all and decided that each plumber was advising ... more

    Advantages Advantages Warranty, Warranty, Warranty

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Idiot Installer

    I bought a CS125 A Ravenheat from plumbase as they recommend them. Had it installed by a corgi bloke. Stopped working after a month phoned the guy who put it in, he was not interested, plumbase said speak to ravenheat. Great unsure what to do but i knew i had a three year warranty. spoke to manufacturer expecting to be charged or ignored. They came out the next day and fixed it, still expected a bill when the guy had finished, still no bill! Brilliant the boiler might not have done what it said on the tin but the warranty did. Mind you according to the engineer the installer wired it wrong ... more
