Condition grade 7/10 (Reclaimed). Assessed by the seller at listing; figures below relate to this specific lot of 4 units.

About this lot

Stripped, pressure tested to 6 bar, ready for primer. Perfect for restoration or industrial interiors. Located in Bristol — collection or arranged regional delivery available. Direct from Bristol Reclaim Co., a demolition operating out of Bristol; live for 13 days.

This is exactly the kind of material that typically ends up in a skip costing the seller money; buying it diverts it back into a build. It is sold as reclaimed: character included, surprises excluded — read the defect notes below before bidding your time.

Condition report & known defects

7/10
  • Surface finish shows service wear; 5% will want a primer coat before final paint.

Carbon & sustainability notes

Choosing this lot over new product avoids an estimated 184 kg CO₂e — benchmarked against manufacturing new heating plant (a cast-iron radiator ~45 kg CO₂e; a boiler ~300 kg CO₂e).

For scale: roughly 1086 km in a typical petrol car, or a year's absorption for 9 established trees.

With Part Z and embodied-carbon reporting moving up the agenda, documented reuse like this is increasingly worth recording in your project's carbon log.

Collection & delivery

  • Buyer collection in Bristol; pallet truck on site; tail-lift vehicles recommended.
  • Nationwide pallet courier available — typically £60–£115 per pallet, 2–4 working days.
  • Viewings welcomed by appointment; the measurements table above reflects what was checked at listing.

Typical applications

  • Full heating system installs at a discount
  • Period radiator restoration projects
  • Self-build and renovation first/second fix
  • Landlord boiler swaps (warranty stock)

Questions about this lot

Is the boiler warranty valid if I buy surplus?+

Sealed, unregistered boilers can usually be registered by your Gas Safe installer at commissioning — confirm the serial with the manufacturer before purchase.

Have reclaimed radiators been pressure tested?+

Yes — Bristol Reclaim Co. tests before listing; the bar rating and duration are in the measurements table for this exact lot.

Who should install this?+

Gas appliances must be installed by a Gas Safe registered engineer; unvented cylinders need a G3-qualified installer. Wet UFH and radiators can be fitted by a competent plumber.
