Hello, sorry if this post is already covered.
The 'problem' is that we moved into our house just over a year ago and were informed that the combi boiler was brand new, which It was.
However because they were moving out, I think they opted for the cheapest one.
The problem we've got is that the boiler cannot handle the cold supply as it is very powerful.
The radiators are hot all the time but the hot water supply is very poor and comes out luke warm unless you turn it to a trickle and then its really hot (but you can imagine how long it takes to fill the bath!!).
I was informed by the service engineer that it is two small for our supply and we need to upgrade, which is fair enough.
How do I go about choosing the right one? Is there any way of testing the pressure myself without buying a gadget that will be used just once?
Can you actually get one thats TOO good and will be damaged?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Frankie.
