i put a post here about replacing a boiler
//www.diynot.com/forums/plumbing/gas-bolier-with-pump.322276/
However, i'm still looking into a solution, as I just think for the small house we have the solution just will look untidy and hoped someone else may have a view
1) its a 3 bedroom small house needing 6 rads
2) been quoted for a 12kw worcester boiler - pressurised or non-pressurised
the boiler is wall mounted , and the issues are ,
a) because they are condensing, i need to have a pipe across an down a wall to a drain - which will look very untidy
can you get non-condensing boilers
b) the flu has to come out the top , and so the boiler will take up a lot more room height wise
c) the pressurised system needs an additional water pipe alos now going across the wall
all this makes it untidy
if i don't have the pressurised system - then i need a pump fitted - which i may be able to get under the floor above - other wise that will be alongside the boiler and again i just feel it will all look very untidy - having seen an installation , they just don't seem to be all enclosed any more like the servo warm boiler we have
before i order the installation , i just want to be 100% sure i only have these options available and to have an untidy looking installation
thanks for all your advice
