Hi, Can any one tell me please that apart from the cost, which is better, a silver soldered or TIG welded boiler.
Or does it not matter if both are constructed well.

The big advantage of TIG welded construction is if it develops a leak or damage later in life, it can be repaired. With a silver soldered boiler, a leaking tube in the firebox will almost always scrap the boiler

Another advantage. As the firebox outer plates are not flanged and overlapped, there is more space for water to flow around the firebox

No real difference between the two
