I have been told that i need a new pump for my ch and am arranging for it to be fitted by a friend of a friend. i have been asked to have the new pump here for when he gets here. it seems fairly straight forward to buy one from wickes or similar...my question though is what is the difference between a 6m head and a 5m head and how do i work out which one i need to buy??

How big is the house? How many rads?

A 15/50 pump should be enough for most houses but if you have a town house then a 15/60 would be more powerful HTH
 
hey gasman. its a 3 bed house over two floors. 4 rads upstairs...3 down including one double. i looked at wickes website and they have one pump at 5m head and one at 6m. whats the difference? thanks in advance.
 
Go for the 5 ;)

Basically 1 is more powerful than the other but you dont need the big un
