Hi
I need to change my boiler and was hoping to have a combi boiler. I have been given differing advice. My flow rate is about 10 to 11 litres per minute around mid afternoon. It is a small house & just my daughter & I.
I had British gas round hoping I would get independent advice he said that the flow rate was too low for a combi. I had the water board for a different reason they thought I had a leak I don't and the chap said (without checking it) that he thought the pressure was good! One plumber told me that I would need to change the pipes from the meter through the house at a huge cost ! I can't do that as I can't afford to do so & it would mean digging up the drive.
Has anyone had a combi with that sort of flow rate, if so is the pressure ok?
The alternative is to keep a conventional system but this would mean putting the hot water tank in a wardrobe. Has anyone done that ? Is it noisy etc.
Sorry this is a bit boring but I have been told so many different things. I am hoping to have a loft conversation (posted on a different thread for advice) so need the tank out of the loft.
Would be grateful for any advice !
