    boiler, cylinder and water tank

    Hi MM, Many thanks! Please may I know if break tank = heater tank or sperate thing all together? Does it mean if I go for cylinder, I will need room for water tank, heater tank, break tank and of course the pump too? Again, thanks! Rachel.

    boiler, cylinder and water tank

    Thanks! Please may I know which model are you using? I have very good advice from gas4you, corgiman and Breesey previously, however, I get really confused after meeting few plumbers. It seemed that none of the system (combi, megaflo or standard cylinder with tank and pump) will work well. So...

    Recommend indirect vented hot water cylinder

    Your help is much appreciated! We have just bought an old house (built circa 1930s). My plumber advised us to replace our indirect vented hot water cylinder. He also said that we need size of around 200 litre. Our water flow rate from the main is very low, around 13lts per minute. Hence...

    Combi Boiler vs Cylinder

    Hi guys, The water flow rate in my house as well as my neighbour's is just 13 litres/minute. My understanding is that megaflo won't work well with the exiting rate and changing the pipe from the main to the house may not give me higher flow rate. Am I right to say that it wouldn't make...

    Combi Boiler vs Cylinder

    There is an old water tank (plus a header tank, not quite sure what this is) in the loft but it has to be removed or replaced. Can I remove both tanks in regardless of whatever system I go for?

    Combi Boiler vs Cylinder

    Thanks! You guys are amazing. For my understanding, if I go for combi boiler and save space, I won't have hot water problem by using Vaillant Ecotec 937?
