    Combi boiler - how big/which one?

    Hi, this is my first post, so please, be gentle. We are in the process of buying a house we currently rent and one of the first jobs we need to do is change the boiler, as the current one is 20+ years old, and I can tell you it is really inefficient. (I think it was rating G when I checked...
