Firstly ... Happy New Year to you all.
I'm considering having my current Worcester Highflow 3.5 Combi replaced (Feeding DHW to 4 bed house with 2 bathrooms and Sealed System CH with 13 rads) and quite like the look of DPS's Pandora vented heat bank fed by either a conventional or system boiler to give full flow hot water ... I like to do most things myself (other than gas) so the Pandora setup presses all my buttons
I have quite a few options for locations of the new kit but need to make some decisions now as I'm about to re-fit the utility room which is where the current boiler lives.
I have a couple of questions ...
1. Is it permissible to house the boiler and heatbank in the garage (ours is quite large) rather than the utility room i.e. Are there any regs or issues preventing doing this?
2. I quite like the idea of using a conventional boiler (say the Worcester Greenstar 30CDi as an example) rather than a system equivalent (Greenstar 30CDI System HE) as all of the additional components can be supplied fitted to the Pandora and are then far easier to maintain/replace than when they are fitted inside the boiler case. Are these boilers interchangeable in this way and only differ in the fitting of the additional system components ... Expansion tank, PRV, PUMP etc etc or am I missing something?
Thanks in advance
Andy
