NARROWBOAT AND MARINE calorifier

[eidiohir]

Anyone have any dealings with this company? They are selling calorifiers on ebayhttp://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NARROWBOAT-AND-MARINE-calorifier-/180875242570?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_BoatEquipment_Accessories_SM&clk_rvr_id=589289089770 and they seem quite inexpensive. I just wonder haow good they are buyer beware and all that.

Installed a couple of their copper vertical twin coil models on narrowboats, acceptable though not outstanding quality. The stainless ones may be better.

What would be your advice? Buy or avoid? I am inclined to avoid a leaking calorifier is not on my wish list.

I was happy to install them, though they were owner supplied, not my first choice though but yer pays yer money...

I think I will give them a miss. Do you recommend a make and/or type?

Sorry for late reply, I have fitted a number of and am impressed by the build quality & features of the Sigmar Marine Compact and Inox range, really nice and oh easy to fit, even hanging upside down, the calorifier that is, not me.
Also the 316 stainless range from Indel Webasto is really good (but I would say that wouldn't I)

Thank you I will investigate and pick one.
I live in Ireland but the boat is in Belgium so I have to buy everything and have it delivered to me here before heading over in a van with all the bits and all the tools.
So I am about to start buying everything I can't buy easily either locally or in Belgium.

If you decide on one of the Indel Webasto ones I can probably do you a better deal than even the box sellers, not so much on the Sigmar stuff.
