What size zip boiler for a small bath ?

[mikeyw]

Hi,

I'm trying to decide whether to install a small bath (1500mm) in a flat i'm developing. The flat only has electric heating so will need a zip boiler for the bathroom sink and bath ( if i fit one) - what size is needed to fill a small bath in a reasonable time ?

tia,
Mike.

24 kW will give about 8 litres per minute in the winter.

How long you think is reasonable is up to you and the depth you want!

Totally impracticable of course but he did ask!

Wait until he sees the cost of the wiring and upgrading the incoming supply!

Is it a 1 or 2 bedroom flat?

What you must remember Mike with hot water heating; the more you can store the less it'll cost you to run & the smaller the electrical supply you'll need.
OK it's not always easy to accommodate a hot water cylinder in a flat, but it's the best route to go down.
Is the property heated by electricity?
