    Internal french door - 762mm (poss. bi-fold)

    Hi , I have a problem with an internal door where it ideally needs to be a french door (or possibly a bi-fold door, which fully folds back, not jutting out perpendicular). The door is a standard 30 inch or 762mm width. I have restricted opening on both sides of the door, so a half door...

    Thanks for the response all I have a megaflow so I guess this is the heat exchange. I have a source of unsoftened water, so I will use this for the central heating system and use the softened water for my domestic hot and cold but I will check the megaflow first
