    Renovation - UFH + 2 showers

    Madrab, great information, thank you! I really appreciate the help you guys are providing. Agile:. The numbers are just for working things out, I plucked 20l/min from thin air and just found a 210l tank because I was already on the site looking for boilers. This is a starting point to check...

    Renovation - UFH + 2 showers

    I understand what you mean, though I'm still not sure it matters. Using the links above, the largest hot water tank is 210l. The cold water tank is 50gal (227l). Picking a 20l/min shower x2 will be 40l/min combined hot and cold flow rate. Dividing that into 60% hot and 40% cold will be...

    Renovation - UFH + 2 showers

    Hey guys, Thanks for the quick replies! Because the Hot water and Cold water would be supplied at the pressure and flow of the incoming main, there would be a noticeable drop in flow rate when the second shower is turned on. We are trying to avoid this, hence the pumped cold water and not...

    Renovation - UFH + 2 showers

    Hi Guys, I am renovating a house and the old boiler, hot water tank, everything has been removed. I am starting from scratch. I require two showers to be run at the same time. The heating will be underfloor. I have spoken to a few plumbers and have received pointless answers such as "why...
