Hi, I have recently moved in. I have been getting Corgi guys in for quotes on installing a new high efficiency regular boiler as the old Myson Apollo Fanfair has decided to die after 16 years. Some say the existing 3 port valve in the airing cupboard where the immersion heater/cylinder is fine, others say it needs updating with an automatic by pass valve, and that I should have some pipe work altering near that and the pump (the cold feed and vent). Others say it's fine up there as it is. Someone's had British Gas in fairly recently as far as I can see as the valve and pump are blue and has their logo on it, and the pipes look like they have been earthed fairly recently mostly where the new looking power shower is, so I would have thought the system has been bought up to date fairly recently, but I wouldn't have a clue other than what I've been told, and that's been conflicting.
The existing 3 port valve is fine, worked ok when we did have heating. It was just a couple of Corgi guys saying it needed updating, and I don't want to have anything done if it really doesn't need doing, but if it's a very good idea, then that's ok. Only 2 rads will be fitted with trvs. Any advise please?
