Contact sellerHow buying works

Condition grade 9/10 (New surplus). 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 Manchester — collection or arranged regional delivery available. Direct from Manchester Greenfield Contractors, a contractor operating out of Manchester; live for 10 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. This is unused, current-spec material — the only thing second-hand about it is the price tag logic.

Condition report & known defects

9/10
  • Unused stock — original banding/packaging intact where stated.
  • Minor pallet-edge scuffs to outer packaging only.

Carbon & sustainability notes

The 63 kg CO₂e figure on this listing is calculated against manufacturing new heating plant (a cast-iron radiator ~45 kg CO₂e; a boiler ~300 kg CO₂e).

Put another way — about 372 km of driving emissions, or 3 tree-years of carbon uptake.

If your project tracks embodied carbon (BREEAM, Part Z readiness, or client ESG reporting), keep this listing reference as evidence of avoided emissions.

Collection & delivery

  • Buyer collection in Manchester; telehandler on site, HGV access fine.
  • Seller can quote hiab or flatbed delivery within ~30 miles of Manchester; from £80.
  • Ask the seller for close-up photos or a video walkround if you can't visit — they expect the request.

Typical applications

  • Landlord boiler swaps (warranty stock)
  • Underfloor heating zones and extensions
  • Full heating system installs at a discount
  • Period radiator restoration projects

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 — Manchester Greenfield Contractors 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.
