Sorry its a bit long
Our boiler is currently in our spare room which will be the baby's room in a few months. Its noisy (fan issue and something to do with the ignition which I don't understand) and is 25+ years old. Our radiators don't heat properly which they suspect is to do with a build up of silt but can't be 100% sure until the system is flushed. Same with repair to boiler, can't be 100% sure that this will fix the problems.
DH and I had agreed to replace the boiler and move it too the kitchen. We had mentioned to MIL months ago if she knew anyone as we were thinking of doing this (she works in property maintenance) and she said she didn't.
Fast forward a few months and we mention we have a guy t do work, a quote we're happy with and a date penciled in. Suddenly we don't need to replace the boiler as the boiler is a good model that will work for years and years to come, a simple flush of the system and having thermostats installed will solve everything. This guy she knows has told her this and its a waste to move it. She keeps saying that its our house and our decision but but but......
AIBU to want to move the 25+ year old noisy boiler which hasn't heated flat properly in the 6 years we've been here (despite repairs) from the room my baby is going t be sleeping in?
