Re: New boiler recommendations

The current setup: A system boiler with hot water cylinder in the airing cupboard upstairs. There are then water tanks in the loft that I'm keen to get out of there too.


What I would like is a new combi boiler and to rip out the old tanks in the loft and also the big hot water cylinder which would free up space.


It is a 4 bedroom house, one bathroom with bath, and one en suite which has a shower.
We would quite like to be able to have baths and shower at the same time so I'm thinking it's going to have to be a pretty powerful Combi.



What would you guys recommend? Thanks in advance for your replies.
You could try Boxt, they're a very good company IMO and it's all done online, you just provide various details including photos they ask for. You get asked about how many radiators, bathrooms etc and they will suggest a range of suitable boilers. If there's a problem with the water pressure there are things they may be able to do to mitigate it. I ended up getting a Worcester Bosch with them and it has been excellent.
