If this helps....
I’ve a 4 bed detached. 2 bathrooms. Downstairs WC.
The ‘olde’ system as installed when built in 1999...cylinder, tanks in the loft.
Hated the bathrooms for 18 years but they worked. Better than wild camping.
100% renovation of bathrooms in late 2020, then installed new boiler job, changing to a combi. Had to upgrade the gas supply to boiler. Outside gas pipe, up gable end, under floorboards and joists, which ran in the wrong direction.
Plumber installed an Intergas Eco RF36, and immediately below it a Canetis Combi Superflow ( pre heat store). I assume this stores and pre heats the water before going into the combi boiler.
I’d never heard of Intergas boilers, but the plumber came highly recommended so I assumed he was a good ‘un.
With a Ferrox magnet filter, inhibitor, pipe work, upgraded gas supply, and all labour, start to finish, if cost me £2783.
Result is a far more efficient boiler, and a fantastic flow of hot water...think rain forest type in my en-suite. Surprisingly, and as promised, I can get hot water from 3 sources simultaneously....shower, bath and downstairs kitchen sink. Ideal for a family.
His labour costs...he’s self employed, were £800, included in the above amount. Job done.
