Central Heating Systems

So that makes a maximum heat leakage of 3160/24 = 132W However that would likely be on a temperture difference of (say) 70C versus a plausible difference of (say) 40C. Also the size for the cylinder might account for (say) 40% more than a

1050x450 cylinder.

I allowed 100W in the back of my mind when making the earlier posts. Seems I was probably a bit generous.

Which illustrates what I was saying that usage patterns and requirements are very significant.

Yeah, I wouldn't be happy leaving a 150W light bulb on 24/7, but with gas it's 5p a day so not at the level I'd worry about.

I don't think this is the case, IMHO. ISTM that Paul argues for his opinion [1] , when someone disagrees with him I have yet to see a reply along the lines of: .... You are an ignorant amateur. ...

IMHO it is not principally the initial content of IMM's posts that are especially objectionable. IMHO the problems are:

1) The suggestions are put forward in absolute terms, there is usually no hint that it is one approach from many, that has _some_ validity in _some_ situations. 2) When debate is encountered he tries to defend the initial matter in increasingly strident terms. If he offered either more coherent debate and/or 'cut some slack' for other posters opinions less antagonism would occur. Indeed he might gain support for _some_ of his suggestions as people would not find themselves having to support the indefensible. 3) When attempts at reasoned debate expire the posts descend to personal attacks on the other posters. [1] Which in this matter I agree, but that is beside the point.

Yes, nobody could argue quite as badly as IMM, it is just the "I know somebody who..." bit I was referring to.

FWIW I love big showers, nothing feels as luxuriant as a full on drenching IMO

Bertie, he's a pro and would have an opinion and stories to to talk about. Duh!

He has explained performance.

Depends on who makes the cylinder. Gledhill do them insulated underneath in square cases. Very well insulated. Others are not insulated underneath.

You've led a sheltered life :-)

Mary

You need one that consumes 400 litres a shower and a water meter. You do.

.......so I had to snip it all nice people. This is for your own good as you would not want to waste time reading such inane babble.....

.......DIY caber making is very different to doing real things...

.. and not fish around presumably?

I don't recall that I have ever seen a posting of yours in which you demonstrated any understanding of reasoned debate whatsoever.

Well it would be, if one happens to be a dirty Brit who doesn't like showers. OTOH combis can't provide a decent shower.

.....another madman...Duh!

Not bad. Only four spelling mistakes in a sentence.

Or is it just three and we are supposed to seriously batter you ? Please say it's so.

thank you.

Thus speaks a man who only thinks in terms of his own gratification in showering. There are other uses for hot water ...

Mary

He still hasn't found his spell-checker ...

Mary

If a man wanted gratification in showering he would buy a combi. This one is inverted.
