Hello.
I am have just bought a new boiler. Valliant ecotec plus 824. It was very expensive. I have a one bed flat. Open plan kitchen/ living room about 6m x 5m. Bedroom 3.5m square and separate bathroom and stairs leading to my flat. I have added a liitle internal insulation to the solid brick work Walls and had loft insulated. I am pretty sure the boiler is ok for the size of flat. The boiler position has moved now about 8m pipe run from gas meter. My plan is to upgrade the pipe to 22mm to the boiler it tees off before the boiler to supply gas hob before it gets to the boiler. Is this right? Even though the supply to the boiler is 15mm. Reduce to 15mm 1m from boiler. Secondly the existing flow return pipe work is 15mm. The boiler has 22mm conection for both pipes. Will this need upgrading or can I get away with existing or when can I reduce back to 15mm from boiler. Thanks in advance. Taylor.
