Hi
Which is the best route to take, a Megaflow HE or Combi Boiler?
We’re in a 4-bed house, 2 kids, bathroom & en-suite (2 showers, one bath).
We have a traditional gravity-fed boiler & tank set-up, which came when the house was built 12 years ago. The shower used to be OK (not as powerful as we would like, but OK), now it varies in pressure & seams to constantly get air locks. It’s really sensitive to the height setting. The higher the shower, the weaker the flow. I have to place the shower in the tray to allow the air locks to blow though. It’s a real pain.
We were thinking about changing the boiler this year & had been told that Combis are the way to go, but it’s now been suggested that we keep the boiler & go for a Megaflow HE????
Which will give the best Shower Pressure?
Which is the most Efficient method?
How many years before a Boiler should be changed? Do they become inefficient after a certain age?
If we changed our Boiler, would the Megaflow become redundant?
Thanks for any advice!
