I am looking to put in an indirect HW cylinder in the loft. We have had a couple of quotes and we realise we haven't a clue about what is essential to the installation and what isn't. Quotes have ranged from £1800 to £3000.
Sorry for these numpty questions but I am a plumbing virgin and not sure if I'm being taken for a ride!
- Does the plumber have to have an unvented licence? Am I right in thinking that the installation rules regarding these cylinders are being relaxed to encourage an increase in their uptake in the UK?
Does the discharge pipe have to be 28mm or is this dependent on its length?
What is an "RM wiring box with additional 2-port zone valve" which is apparently a requirement?
What does changing an open vented to a sealed heating system mean?
