Are Viessmann boilers reliable?

Viessmann boilers have been awarded “Which?” Best Buy status for several years running, giving an indication of both their reliability and value for money. In multiple comparisons and tests, the Viessmann boilers consistently perform as well or better than their closest rivals, with a higher level of reliability.

Are Viessmann boilers efficient?
The more efficient your boiler is, the less it will cost to run. If a boiler runs at 50% efficiency, half of the energy used to run it is wasted. Running at 100% efficiency is impossible as small losses will be made even in the best boilers, but modern boilers often run at higher than 90% efficiency.
Viessmann gas boilers are at the top of the list when it comes to efficiency with some of the boilers reaching 97% efficiency. This can give an energy rating of A, A+, or even A++, indicating that the boiler is super-efficient. The less energy that is required to heat your home and water, the lower your overall energy bills will be.
