Hello
My old 24kW Glow-Worm-Swiftflow-80-S-I-T boiler has packed it in and I am am considering installing a new Worscter-Bosh boiler.
My plumber says that he cannot tell if the existing pipework will support a given size boiler without first buying and fitting the boiler due to some of the existing pipework being hidden under floorboards. This seems odd to me and so I have a couple of questions for you. I would not like to purchase and install a new state-of-the-art combi-convection boiler only to find that I then have to completely re-do my gas pipes at considerable cost and damage to by newly laid floors.
My question is
Is there a measurement that the plumber can make at the point where the existing defunct boiler sits (or elsewhere) to determine what size boiler can be supported without changing the existing pipework?
My shortlist for the new boiler consists of 25SI, 25Junior and 27CDI all from the Worcester-bosh range.
Any ideas?
