Son moved into new house a year back. No central heating, but hot water from an antiquated boiler/thingy that has been repaired twice since he has lived there, and is now pronounced dead. Financially, installing central heating is not an option for a couple of years, but the boiler/thingy has to be replaced just to have hot water at least. Can a combi boiler be installed, just to provide hot water now, and then be connected to pipes and rads at some point in the future? Seems a financial pity to spend around =A3500 for something to give hot water now, and then have to replace it again in a few years time to handle central heating.
TIA
