Have you gone off of the Rhinitis ones now, Dr Drivel?

Why cap it when it can be used for a power shower.

You are a plantpot, just take notice of people who know better than you. There again don't. Do it all wrong and waste money. Yes, that is what you need to do.

Don't tell him that! Make him keep the old boiler and waste his money on gas bills.

15%? He will save 1/3 of his gas bill. That old crock is sucking in his money - oh sorry don't tell him.

The boiler is sited in a cupboard, so could be either floor or wall mounted.

There is no problem as it is on an outside wall well clear of windows etc.

Yes - a pump would be ok. Indeed if it modulates that speed it might make more sense.

OK.

RS. The flue will be no problem.

It's got a 28mm feed all the way from the meter with only the last foot or so in 15mm. The 28mm pipe is also dead straight apart from one 90 degree bend until the actual boiler connection, so I'd guess can handle everything the supply can give.

The rest of the system is pretty well state of the art.

FFS, I already have a hot water system perfectly suited to my needs - including two very decent showers.

I *don't* want or need a fooking combi. Is that too difficult for you to understand?

ALL boilers should have dedicated pipe back to the meter.

With a pump on each tap as well!!!! True, very true.

You need a combi, you really do.

You appear to be calling yourself a plantpot. For once I agree with you.

What is the advantage of a sealed over an open system?

I am asking as we currently have an ancient Baxi Bermuda back boiler and are planning on replacing it soon, in our old house we had a Vaillant combi and it was very good, but in this house there is an airing cupboard etc etc and er indoors likes the idea of keeping it. As a result I am looking at getting maybe a Vaillant 418 open boiler vs a system boiler. From what I can tell the efficiency is not much different?

The message from "RedOnRed" contains these words:

I think Dave has got that wrong as well. On the SEDBUK database the Kingfishers in the range 76 - 79% weren't manufactured prior to 1997. My money would be on the earlier models at 65%.

What a lot of childish drivel! It sounds as if I'm standing in the playground again. To all of you who are wasting my bandwith with petty insults... Shut the f*ck up unless you have anything sensible to say...
