I have a residential house which has commercial pipework and a system in place - It is a gravity fed system. I have had quite a few heating engineers come to the house and they all have suggested to switch to a combi boiler even though the house has five bedrooms and two bathrooms and 15 cast iron radiators - The cost seems to be between 8 -10K to do that
The current boiler is an ideal mexico 2 and works but could do with changing which I want to do as this house is my forever home
I have two questions for the wise people on this forum
1) Would you recommend that this regular boiler is changed to a combi boiler (One engineer even wanted to run plastic pipework and bypass the steel 50mm pipework which left me very unhappy) or should I stick to a heat only regular boiler?
2) The flue running outside the house goes all the way to the top of the house - Can this be reused as this was expensive to install many years ago
