FAQ

What kW is a Vitodens 050-W?

This size is great for homes with about 9-12 radiators and 1 bathroom. The larger size has a DHW output of 29.6kW and a central heating output of 25kW, making it better for homes with a higher hot water demand.

What is the life of a Viessmann boiler?
Typically, a boiler’s lifetime is from about 15-20 years. However, this will greatly depend on how well the boiler is maintained. If you have your boiler installed by a Viessmann Trained Installer and make sure to have it serviced annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer, then you can guarantee at least 10 good years with Viessmann’s warranty.

Is Viessmann a good company?
Viessmann is one of the leading international boiler manufacturers. They are reviewed highly by their customers and their boilers continually come out on top for the Which? Best Buy awards.

Is Vaillant better than Viessmann?
Vaillant and Viessmann are two boiler manufacturers both reviewed highly and therefore definitely worth considering when choosing a new boiler for your home. They both provide high-quality and efficient boilers that will keep your running costs as low as possible.

However, Viessmann’s Inox-Radial stainless steel heat exchanger gives it the edge. The stainless steel heat exchanger is highly resistant to corrosion at a wide range of pH levels, meaning that it doesn’t require as much maintenance and will last longer compared to other manufacturers’ aluminium heat exchangers.

How much does a Viessmann boiler cost?
Viessmann has a wide range of boilers suitable for a variety of budgets. They may not be the cheapest on the market, but they are still reasonably priced and you can guarantee that their products are top quality. For example, the typical price of their Vitodens 050-W is only £916.

However, when buying any type of boiler it is also important to take into account the installation cost and price of any sundries, as this will vary depending on a multitude of factors. Therefore, it’s important to get expert advice from a trusted heating engineer to ensure you’re getting the best boiler at the right price.
