Hello
I have an old and creaking Mexico floor standing slimline boiler on a primatic dual system. The boiler is in the garage and has a half inch gas supply some 7m from the meter. Hot water is on 28mm copper (gravity) the heating circuit is on 25mm copper pumped.
The rads are a mixture of old and new and the pipes go all over the place, I am dubious about converting to a combi on an old set of pipes with joints I dont know the location of given the pressure situation with such systems. (Is this fair)
I am going to replace the boiler during the summer and was thinking of going for a mexico 15HE floor standing and put in a new hot water tank to create an proper indirect system.
First question can I do the heating plumping my self under the new regs, also is the 0.5 inch gas pipe the correct size for the mexico HE boiler or will this have to be up sized. In which case I may go for the combi option
