The Vaillant Eco-Tec Pro 28
The Vaillant Eco-Tec pro 28 is a
combination boiler designed to supply central heating and hot water for the average 2-3 bedroom property,
with one bathroom and shower room.
The boiler comes as standard with a two-year warranty and if fitted by a Vaillant accredited installer this is increased to
five years. So if you are considering installing a Vaillant Eco-Tec Pro 28 into your
property you need to find an installer who is accredited to Vaillant, so you can benefit from the five-year warranty.
Part of the warranty terms
is, that the boiler is serviced each year by a gas safe registered engineer and that the benchmark is
filled in and signed to confirm this. If the boiler is not serviced then the warranty becomes void. So it’s a
good idea to arrange an annual service contract with the installer. The warranty terms are the
same for all boiler manufactures. No Service, No Warranty.
The installation of the Vaillant Eco-Tec Pro 28 if replacing anold combination boiler should only take one day if replacing
from a system where you have water storage tanks then this will take 2-3 days to convert over.
The boiler has been designed with the installer in mind. The boiler is
very easy to fit onto the wall. You just fit the supplied wall bracket to the
wall make sure the flue hole is bigger enough and then the
boiler can be hung onto the wall, it’s that simple.
By upgrading an old standard gas boiler to this new system
(with a basic room thermostat) you could save up to approximately 1,157kg of C02/year*
When installing this type of system along with a basic room
thermostat you could save up to approximately £234 on your gas bill per year.
Depending on your system requirements, a boiler
replacement installation of this kind can cost anywhere between £2000-£3500
The boiler is supplied with all the valves connections needed to connect up the pipework, the
only thing you will need is to fill up a loop, to fill the system with water.
It’s a good idea when installing your new boiler to have a MagnaClean
unit fitted to the system, this will
collect all the sludge and debris that may still be in the system,
it also protects the boiler from sludge blockages in the heat exchanger,
which is a common cause of boiler breakdown.

Vaillant offers a second to none back up service should you need to call them under the warranty.
If your boiler should break down the first thing you should do is call the installers or a Gas safe engineer to check the boiler first. Most people
who make a call under the warranty
find out they are not covered, because it’s normally not the boiler that has caused the breakdown,
it’s something else, so it’s advisable to call the installer first,
otherwise, you may be charged for the call out.
