Hi all,
I hope this post isn't too scant on detail. I have established that my lounge / kitchen requires 12460 BTU for central heating. Interestingly, this is more or less the same whether I use the Myson program on Windows, or the plumber merchant method of volume in cubic feet x 5.5.
I'm after two vertical, so-called designer radiators, but they mostly seem to max out at just below the required figure.
The property is a 20 year old middle-floor flat, concrete framework in the block, pretty well insulated, so it seems. I never really turned my thermostat above 18/19 celsius in winter with my previous boiler and rads. I typed a figure of 21 degrees into the Myson calculator, as it was the default and I didn't want to live on the edge.
Is it likely that if I specify a couple of 5900 BTUs rather than 6230s, the 5% loss in maximum output would make any practical difference?
