Hi I'm looking for a decent guide to pipe sizing/calcs for water. Can anyone recomend a book?

Red Dragon by Thomas Harris. Far better than the film.

Another book might be the HVCACentral Heating Design Guide ISBN 0-903783-33-9.

10mm 2.5kW
15mm 6kW
22mm 13kW
28mm 22kW

So, most people, if you have a reasonable size boiler, why have you got unreasonably small pipes?

There's a couple of free pdf documents that may help:
Pipe Sizing - Basic Principles and Pipe Sizing - Tabulation Method
