Hi
We're extending our house from a 3 bed/1 bath semi to 4 bed/2 baths/3 showers house.
I current system has been on its last legs for a number of years, but we have managed to make it last until now.
I want to replace our existing boiler (traditional, with hot and cold tanks) for a new one.
TYPE OF BOILER
COMBI
People have raved onto me about Combi's but I'm not convinced that it will able to service the number of outlets we are going to have.
MEGAFLOW
Our builder recommended a megaflow system, stating all new houses come with one, but I've never heard of this before.
HALF / HALF
Somebody else said you can get a Combi boiler with a small tank, and that this might meet our needs.
LOCATION
Currently our boiler is wall mounted in the kitchen and the hot water tank in an airing cupboard in the bathroom. I'm not desperate to get both moved, but if I've got builders and plumbers in for a few months, I suppose I should consider if these could be house better elsewhere. I've been told that lofts and garages are good options for locations. Are there any considerations in moving the boiler etc ?
Many thanks in advance.
