Evening all,
Looking to replace my dated bathroom and have also considered changing the boiler/hot water tank/loft tanks.
3 bed house built by local authority in 1959. Had central heating fitted maybe 70-80's? Currently all rooms have rads and are fed from above as ground floor is concrete. No probs as hallway and sitting room have boxed in/hidden pipes and it looks ok.
Bathroom is above the kitchen and in the kitchen is the boiler at head height... Potterton Netheat.
Airing cupboard with large tank. Lagged but only with wrap around stuff half falling off.
Loft has cold water header tank (massive galvinised one) and radiator expansion tank - plastic.
Bathroom has cold feed from the loft, kitchen from the mains.
Should i convert to combi and pressurised heating system. Family 3 bed house so is that considered OK or inadequate? Simply replace the boiler with a smaller more efficient one..?
I live here by myself so a combi would be perfect for me..... washing machine is cold feed and who has baths these days...? I do shower though!
Depending on the above, do i go electric, grvity or pumped shower?
Getting pipes from boiler to bathroom is easy.
