So it seams Atag Q series are s semi commercial boiler and overkill for my requirements...that's coming from Atag technical support today! An A series would suffice and they do a 30kw system boiler in that range which was what was reccomended So the choice seems to be... ATAG A320S 6.1kw -...

Cheers guys. Bit late I know, but having done the calcs from a couple of online calculators, I come up with between 24 and 27kw for the house. I guess that's not a very scientific way of doing it but as i;m stuffing in as much insulation as I can when I take up floorboards and take down...

Thermal store acceptance seem to be a few years behind unvented which have only in the last few years really gained 'normality' I guess..

Just ordered my alarm. Texecom 24 metal clad. comm 2400 gsm communicator 360 degree dual tech sensor for hall 4 x dual tech sensors for down stairs and landing door contacts two keypads one for upstairs, one for landing battery and internal/external sounder Any tips on wiring it...

Thought it was every 4, so figured 50quid a year...if it's five, then bonus! :-)

Thanks AgiIe, yes, I'm looking to do it properly and god to see my idea of heat only and invented still carries merrit. But budget is tight. Conflicting remits, but I'm looking for a good solid reliable solution just without gold-plating it :-)

I'm turning a 3.3x3.3 bedrrom into a 1x3.3 airing cupboard and a 2.3x3.3 en-suite the airing cupboard is to house the boiler, unented and associated pipework, all with access panels or easy lift floors for maintenance. Room is at the front of the house on first floor. This will feed the next...

Cheers guys. so the Worcester is not getting good vibes...was only thinking this route as I'd been advised Veissman or WB. Will look at the Vaillant and Intergas as well. Will do the full calcs tomorrow night when my brain is working again - been a long day at work!! Thermal store and...

looking at this, it's still not right. Expansion vessel looks like it's connected to the balanced cold feed, not the expansion port! Looks like more than 600mm of pipework between the safety valve and the tundish. I'd check the fall on the D2 pipework from the Tundish and where it's...

Runnign the DHW off the boiler would requrie a combi?? or have i missed a trick? Not keen on combi's. not even that keen on a system boiler...Want a standard and a tank (looking for a nice big fat store of water) Atag is 1800quid which also pushes pretty far above what I was hoping to pay for...

Yes, but to get a quote or anything resembling a quote seems to be impossible. last one i had round was before christmas and still waiting after chasing a couple of times. I mentionned Wourcester and they liked the boiler but weren't sure if they went big enough for the property...but they go up...

Preffer a more modular solutionso if anything packs up its easier to get generic bits. I have concerns about the oso for that reason(more cylinder specific components). Not sure I'd want to chuck a boiler and cylinder in together...

Just looking to spec a new boiler - 1910 solid brick 3 story (built like that) semi about 250m2 insulation being installed betwene floors and in roof space as renovation progresses (no insulation currenty!). All good sized rooms (benefit of old build!) 2 reception rooms kitchen hall...

The kind of advice i was after! thanks.

no takers then? I've had and read conflicting reports on what to do...expert advice sought :-)

Is the bungalow a new build? the reason i ask is that I've been advised to steer clear of UFH for my place due to thermal loss (an old 100yr old solid brick build)...water UFH just won't be man enough as a primary heating source. great for well insulated new builds, but not for me. I'd be...

All good points, thanks Will have mains powered smoke and CO2 alarms anyway - is there a specific advantage to having them integrated? No pets to consider except perhaps a 2 yr old son ;-) are wall/corner mounted sensors better than 360' ceiling sensors, of vice versa? LIke the idea of...

Thanks for replies...looks good! So a Texecom 24 metal kit plus x number of dual tech sensors (360 degree ceiling ones good or bad idea?) gives me a basic alarm I can set from the front door. I get notified via the communicator but does not seem to come with an external sounder so wont hear...

stripped a wall back to brick to be re-plastered, partly for tiling and partly for painting (bathroom). Yellow soft brick construction with I presume lime mortar. have had a quote for a render finish followed by a skim with the idea that it's stronger than plaster, hardwall or bonding. My...
