Honestly the main reason is the size, i would like a smaller machine unless you think TT is really a good product then i will try and fit it.
Thanks!

Personally, I would go with the Triangle Tube as I like the durability and less finicky heat exchanger. Why are you doing away with the TT? If you must change, the Buderus is a good boiler, Vitodens is even better though…
