Thanks, I understand what you are saying I am just curious about the effects of water pressure on the flowrate on 'similiar' boilers from different manufacturers as on the surface it seems that a boiler with a lower stated flowrate may achieve a better final result then a.n.other 'bigger'...

Using the 2 websites and the recent cold weather :D The house has a 2 storey side extension and a single storey rear with flat roofs, I have assumed no insulation in the calcs which currently comes out at 18KWH. When I account for the single glazed windows that we will be replacing along...
