Price for plate heat exchanger and flow switch?

Jul 22, 2005 8 Replies

Anyone know where I can get a 50-100kW plate heat exhanger and flow switch suitable for diy-ing (natch :-) a thermal store heat exchanger system at a reasonable (i.e. low) price? DPS want about 100 for the heat x, 30 for the switch, + VAT. Anywhere I could get a better price?

Try SWEP for the heat exchanger; only got commercial ones from them, I don't know if they'd do a small order.

Try the on-line boiler spares sites. A couple of cheap combi plate heat exchangers in parallel will probably do, and may work out far cheaper as well.

Hmmmn. On my planet the words 'boiler spares' and 'cheap' are invariably accompanied by the word 'not'. Do you know soemwhere I can get two plate heat exchangers for less than 100 of our Earth pounds?

You forgot to mention your ability as an artist.

Thank you...a great painter too.
