Off to google some of these now. Would 210L be OK for the cylinder size?

Thanks Dan Ok great let's say 18kw boiler. Any type you would recommend? Also I was thinking on the 210L santon premier plus hot cylinder but I'm getting conflicting replies on that. I have room for a larger tank, would I need anything larger? I was going with 50ls per person and 50ls over...

Thanks for clearing that up. Now it makes a big difference. Down to 10.9kw. One other thing "Allowance for Domestic Hot Water"? What goes here?

The loft has always been habitable space since the house was built. I have put a new slate roof on with 125mm celotex for insulation in the roof. No I put 9m for length times 2 walls and 6m width times 2 walls and those were the figures it gave me so I had thought maybe the correct number...

Using the link you gave I get: 29.68kw when i say 3 floors 21.05kw when I say 2 floors

The truth is I don't really know, I just wanted to make sure I got enough power. I always think it's better to look at it than look for it. Let me give you some more info. Full renovation of a mid terrace with 10' high ceilings. All ground floors have been lifted and insulated with...

What setup would you recommend? I haven't done anything yet on heating so I appreciate all the help and advice.

Gasguru..thanks for the detailed reply. I'll check out the worcester boiler on your recommendation. Just to confirm that I got you right. You see nothing wrong with the santon systemfit and you would use the Greenstar 30CDi Classic Regular? The house is an old victorian terrace with 10'...

Thanks for the replies. So are you saying that my original idea of using the system boiler is a better choice?

I'm just about to start thinking about the central heating system in my renovation. I have a loft so not wanting to have any cold water storage tanks I had thought about using. 210l Santon Premier Plus Systemfit Indirect Unvented hot water cylinder and a Valiant ecoTec plus 630 system...

Can anyone recommend a structural engineer in Norwich? I want to take down a ground floor wall and insert a steel beam to give me a through kitchen diner. The house is a 1890 victorian terrace and the wall is taking the weight of an upstairs wall. Any idea how much it would cost? Thanks

Yes this seems to be the best way to handle it. I had never really thought about dry lining before but after reading some threads on it, it seems to be the "modern" way to work with old houses.

I'm doing a full renovation on a 3 bed victorian terrace with high ceilings. The house has already been stripped of everything including door frames, and all woodwork and most ceiling are down with the exception of living room, hall and dining room due to the decorative plasterwork in these...

I would like to have an internet connection possibly hardwired with cat6 and smart tv in 4 rooms. How many data cables would I need for this? Would I need more than 1 cat6 per room?

I'll take all this onboard. Thanks again
