Our thoughts
The Ideal Mexico HE gas boiler is a regular boiler. It must be installed along with a hot water cylinder and storage tank. For this reason, and because the boiler unit is very large, it won’t be a good option if you have limited space in your home.
Another thing to be wary of is the warranty period. At only two years, it is way below other boilers in the Ideal range and other manufacturers. Their reliability rating isn’t high, so it could catch some customers out.
Variety of choice
The Ideal Mexico HE gas boiler includes five sizes – 15, 18, 24, 30 and 36kW. That means they are likely to have one that suits your home’s requirements.
The Ideal Mexico HE is also endorsed by the Energy Saving Trust. So, if you have an old boiler you are looking to upgrade, the Mexico HE will likely still help you reduce your heating bills.
Easy to fit where you need
Although large, this boiler is considered compact for its type and power. This makes it ideal for homes that need top level heat output and have the space to fit the Ideal Mexico HE in a utility room. However, space for a hot water cylinder and water tank will also need to be factored in, when planning the installation.
Thanks to its relatively lightweight design, it is easy to install and service.
Choose from a range of control options
Alongside the simple digital control panel, customers can also use the optional remote user kit. There is also the option of a condensate pump kit which will help the Mexico HE reduce the risk of condensation issues when in operation.
Manufactured in the UK
The Ideal Mexico HE is manufactured in the Ideal factory in Hull, Yorkshire. For those keen to buy from a UK-based brand steeped in manufacturing history, they are the go-to choice.
