ARISTON GENUS 30 PLUS Storage Combi

Nov 25, 2004 12 Replies

Hi All, Just a quick note for anybody interested in the Ariston Genus 27 Plus or 30 Plus. I believe the 27 Plus has now been superceeded by the 30 Plus. They are pretty similar as far as I can tell (I'm no expert, just an enthusiastic DIYer). I noticed on this group there have been posts about faults with the 27 Plus. I too have experienced the same faults (ignition errors and repeated shut-downs)with the 30 Plus which I had installed a couple of weeks ago. My experience with MTS Group, the UK distributers, has been terrible. IMO they are useless...so be prepared. These boilers are great....when they work, and unfortunately at the moment spares seem to be in short supply or non-existent. After



2 weeks of waiting for a replacement PCB, MTS decided (probably to stop the hassle i was giving them!) to replace the whole boiler. If anybody would like any further details about the boiler or my traumas with MTS Group, I'd be happy to share! J..

MTS farm out the service of the boilers to another company. Did you deal with them?

I'd rather have a boiler that works than a long warranty. Each to their own, I don't like them, I realise not everyone will agree with me but I'd rather do the job properly.

Mine works. No problems.

Silly comment.

And give no logical reason why.

What the hell are you on about? You mean you install shoddily? Sounds about right.

IMM no doubt chooses his boilers from maker's specs and as cheap as they come, so will need a long warranty.

If you are doing this sort of stuff professionally, sorry, making money out of it, You haven't a clue. STOP IMMEDIATELY.

I think most people would. Should I choose from a cement makers specs?

Not blindly, no. They'd hope to know a bit about reliability etc first.

Only for your winter jacket.

Yes, MTS do contract out their work....I think they just employ the services of a network of local firms. The people doing mine are not that local though...60mins drive away. It has been hard work trying to get things sorted in a reasonable time frame. MTS have been in no hurry to fix/replace my boiler!
