Ideal have shot to prominence in recent years with their Ideal Logic and Logic Plus branded boilers, but has more recently introduced their Vogue Combi Boiler which is both highly efficient and reliable.

Feature wise, the Logic includes everything you’d expect from a top spec combi boiler, including built in frost protection and a built in filling loop. These boilers are also fully ErP Compliant, meaning you’re getting the latest tech and the highest attainable efficiency ratings.

The Logic comes with a full 2 year warranty from Ideal (Subject to yearly service) giving you full peace of mind through the winter months.

Much like the Logic and Logic Plus ranges, the Ideal Vogue includes benefits such as a built in filling loop and frost protection, with the same ErP compliancy.

To help with this, installers can input their telephone number which will remind you when your service is due!
