Combi Boiler
Caboose
Member Posts: 4
Need to replace an EK-1 2000 installed in 1998 and beginning to fail, not always firing when called for, etc- well built house, 2000 sq ft, two full baths, kids are gone so now only my wife and I so usually only one shower at a time, maybe dish washer or washing machine also running - quotes from two installers both of whom have done work for me and can be trusted - because of space limitations, want to eliminate hot water tank so considering a combi - one suggests EK Ascent and the other says Bosch Singular 4000. I would appreciate the Forums thoughts.

IMO there is one cardinal sin when changing out a boiler system and that is replacing a boiler mate with a combi, it's already there the new boiler can make use of it, or you can get a complete new system. That being said if you are already familiar with the potential tradeoff of a combi, between the two brands you gave EK seems like a no brainer to me0
