Interesting - very interesting

What the…. Fair play - that’s contrary to what has generally been discussed - but I’m glad it works for you and I guess gives me a little hope….(although I’m still updating some pipes to 22mm)

Gotcha! Might be a silly question but how long can the feeds be from the 22mm pipe to the radiator?

That’s very similar to me to be honest… Hopefully the part upgrade to 22mm will do the trick with a 30 kw boiler… Thanks again

The loft is very difficult to upgrade but will be having 22mm pipes through part way on the first floor and will be extending the downstairs pipes as well…. I’ve got 4 vertical and 3 horizontal designer column rads with two towel rads over 3 three floors… What was your setup in terms of rads...

Work will start soon - any further feedback?

Ok… just an update - the trades person installing everything has agreed to do a ‘part’ 22mm pipe upgrade just so it reduces the pressure on the boiler and pump… So the ground floor and first floor (not the loft) will get 22mm pipes upgrade, not all the way but at least halfway di water can be...

I’ve been taking a few more quotes in and ther overall consensus is pretty much 50/50 from the tradesman that have come… I’m going to install the boiler and rads and take it from there, if I need to change pipes I’ll do it after seeing how it runs… The main concern seems to be balancing…...

So, if part of the set is 22mm that should do the trick right?

Right… I’m with you now

So, I don’t need to upgrade the whole setup to 22mm pipes just to a centralised location - could you very kindly elaborate on that please…. As I’m very reluctant to pull floor boards up and possibly cut into my ceiling as one trades man was suggesting….

Hi, Yes they are not big rooms, medium size rooms, the Btu is more then adequate for the rooms if not slightly overboard… But will I be able to get away with having a 30kw Worcester Bosch boiler with 7 designer column rads (4 vertical and 3 horizontal all double) with my 15MM pipe setup across...

It’s not a problem at the moment but when new rads go in it might be…..

So, do I get the 22mm pipes installed or keep the 15mm - it’s a big job with a lot of pulling things apart?

Hi All, In need of some urgent assistance… I'm getting a Worcester Bosch 30kw combi boiler fitted, the ground floor will be having two vertical rads (1800x472 double) in the dinning room and one in the front room, the boiler feeds water to them first as well as two pipes that go upstairs to my...

Honeywell VTL200 - I might just get 8 of those instead….they in offer at city plumbing

Sure….

Exactly what was going through my mind! I guess they called radbots for a reason, they may lack change or flexibility in how they function - for example my mother tends to stay downstairs and goes to her room when it’s time for bed and not before, so that could mean her bedroom might be a...

Especially not with two AA batteries…(that’s what they use). I’m very tempted as I live with my elderly mother in reasonable sized house and it’s just the two of us and not all the rooms from loft to bedrooms get used….. These are supposedly meant to simmer down room temperature where there is...

Anyone with any experience using these Radbots for radiators?
