Can you have 1 combi boiler feeding 2 properties?

Can you have 1 combi boiler feeding 2 properties?
I have looked through my books just to see if you can fit a combi in 1 flat and feed another down stairs to it,
Does anyone know where I can find the info or does anyone have the answer. I was going to fit zone valves and 2 room stats/programmers.
Hope you can help

I can just imagine the fun and games in the morning, when one resident is taking a shower whilst another finishes loading their washing machine and starts running a bath.......

You can if hot water delivery is from a cylinder.

I look after a few properties where this is the case. It's a disaster...all the result of tight wad landlords.

Each tenant has to coordinate their DHW usage with each other since the flowrate is insufficient and a combi will never supply sufficient hot water.

The communal hall has a programable 'stat but the tenants don't understand it.

Because of the shared boiler the landlord pays for the gas, as you can imagine the gas bill is vast.

Forget the idea.

A good storage combi with weather compensation could answer all those difficulties.

You can use a heat only boilers
and a cylinder to supply several flats.

But you have to have the heat on all the time to keep shift workers happy.

Or have individually times and stated zones.

Would you not be better off fitting a multi point into each of the dwellings?

Or as agile says.

Are you specifying, owning, or just installing?

By installing a Rinnai 26i for the water and a Viessmann 100/Intergas system boiler fitted with that thing Rouge trader dreams about, you could have a very economical, reliable, energy efficient system.
