“Baxi Duo -tec combi boiler”

Written on: 14/03/2013

I bought my boiler March 2012 ,for the first 7 months it was fine since then it has broken down 4 times with the same fault ( 133). SO far the valve has been changed twice when there was nothing wrong with it ,the software has been updated on every visit from repair man and I still haven"t got a working boiler. I had high hopes for baxi, but now I would not recommend them to any of my friends or family . I have spent long cold weekend with no heating or hot water as a pensioner it... (read more)

“Baxi Duo-tec boilers”

Written on: 05/12/2011

I am a registered Gas Safe installer and have installed dozens of Baxi Duo-tecs. If they are replacing an existing boiler the system must be properly flushed out, something that some installers fail to do. An inhibitor must then be used and the boiler commissioned as per manufacturers instructions.If your installer does this properly you should have years of trouble free service from your boiler. Don't forget the annual safety check and service on the boiler. Look after it and it will look... (read more)

You must be one of the better installers. Mine was installed by what i believed was a proffesional company and yet they will not come out to repair it.
Replaceing my old potterton Flamingo was the biggest mistake i ever made.

21 years and i never had a problem.

My Baxi Duo Tec is constantly going down Rubbish Rubbish Dont by it

“To be avoided”

Written on: 03/12/2011

Bought 3.5 years ago, this boiler worked OK for 2 years but ever since then it has been fault after fault. We must have paid out in repair bills what it cost us in the first place. Eventually Baxi came and replaced the heat exchanger free of charge. But it has broken down several times since then - each time, something different. Luckily we now have insurance but the repair man now reckons there is nothing left to go wrong - i think that everything will just break down yet again. ... (read more)

I found this review very helpful because I too have struggled with the hot water aspect of the Baxi comi system. I bought Home Serve insurance and had a high number of call outs and terminated my contract with Homeserve when premiums went over £300 pa. I am believed it was the our local service engineer who could not sort the problem and asked for a Baxi registered engineer- it made no difference!
<br/>It does concern me that now when I have no insurance only one CH engineer locally would go near my Combi boiler because they say it is 'rubbish', and parts are expensive as they are brought in from Italy.My boiler is 10 yaers old. Yet neither Homeserve nor the Baxi engineer would comment.Apparently Baxi scrapped my design for one without the flow switches which are the source of the problem- ie they keep going! My local engineer refers to a replacemnt diaphragm system although I am not sure I know what he is talking about!
<br/>I am really relieved I am not alone with my Combei Baxi but I am still annoyed that I am stuck with a dud!
