Central Heating ~ Boiler Scrappage Scheme...

I think it's all 'smoke and mirrors' or possibly 'steam on mirrors.'
Our trusty Italian made Combi Boiler is over 20 years old, so easily qualifies under the rules of the Scheme.
The registration process changed over the first few weeks but I did manage to provide the ever-changing type of information required and I got the voucher and paperwork.
I got a couple of quotes and it's clear to see that installers will inflate costs and in the long run the householder will pay more.
Interestingly, by buying a boiler direct from a supplier and even considering a 'B' rated boiler, there are savings to be made; this is the route I will take.
Unlike the car scrappage scheme, there are no book prices for the boilers + installation.
Caveat emptor...
