    vinyl floor in kitchen

    Did the fitter check the moisture leval with a hydrometer before he laid it. It could be the vinyl sucking moisture up from underneath then sweating. Is your sub floor wood or concrete.

    Oil fired boiler.

    Whats the best, an oil fired combi or a normal boiler and tank set up? I need to heat 9 rads, and about 40,000btu would probally be enough.

    Need Heating/hot water

    cheers for the ideas so far. I've got a cylinder that does the immersion at the mo and log fire in the lounge, but definitely would prefer a wet system as opposed to storage or convection heaters, as I need 7 rads it would cost to much to run all of them on electric.

    Need Heating/hot water

    Need Heating/hot water

    What sort of cost am I looking at to run electric though, in comparasion to oil? I know oil would be more expensive to install, but i'd have hot water on tap as opposed to having to wait for it to warm up, or does the electric opperate in the same way as a combi?
