Hello,
We are planning to build a house and will start soon.
Now we have one question: our heating installer wants to install a gas boiler and ventilation system from Junkers.
So the general question is, who has experience with Junkers devices? Are they good or bad? Or would it be better to choose another manufacturer? For example, Wolf? Wolf seems to be reasonably priced.
Best regards

I still don’t understand why it is supposedly not possible to compare manufacturers. Once all calculations have determined that a condensing gas boiler with an output of, for example, 3 - 18 kW (4 - 24,000 BTU/h), fully modulating, is suitable for my house, I can use this information to survey the market.
We will be going with a Viessmann Vitodens 200-W.

I am increasingly noticing that in every available thread, you deliver rather populist all-out attacks against BT/GU/GÜ and seem to categorically condemn absolutely EVERYONE... No, I am merely pointing out tendencies, nothing more. I will entirely leave aside the value of construction service intermediaries along with their liability principles in terms of relevance to the client, otherwise I might end up writing a book.

... There are definitely others besides you who approach this topic conscientiously and have knowledgeable advisors in the background. I do not doubt that! On the other hand, how such assumed backgrounds actually clarify matters for the client or become legally effective is unclear to me. Unfortunately, the signature of the intermediary cannot be found in factory contracts!
Best regards.

You’ve been quite active today...
You are correct to recall this; however, the project did not originate from forum activity, nor was the issue caused by faulty system design. Since the dispute is still ongoing – with experts, attorneys, Hase, and BU all busy – I can’t tell you much more other than that, as of now, both the heating operation and Hase seem to have had a really bad day (production and installation). It’s worth mentioning that neither Hase nor BU are among our current partners.
I vaguely remember having already provided you with a complete technical building equipment design for a passive house near Bonn.
Regards, Bauexperte

Sorry Bauexperte, but that’s just based on my many years of professional experience.

If everything is better with the construction services you represent, feel free to provide me with the complete system design of a realized construction project from a forum user. I’d be happy to take a look!

No, why would they be? The important thing is that what I tell the potential homeowner is reflected in the contract, both verbally and in writing. It’s no different than if I were to refer your services; in that case, I am also not liable for your work.
We’re all getting older; besides, it was and still is not my construction project but an external one that I continue to support today.
Hardly, you had nothing to do with the passive house project near Bonn. What is true, however, is that I shared your contact details with two forum users. But I no longer remember what it was about.
