Can anybody give any advice on what size combi boiler is needed for a small mid-terraced house, no extensions, one bathroom?

I have a Salus RT500RF with my Worcester Bosch boiler and am having problems. The flame indicate isisn't on but the heating is still coming on. This is obviously expensive and as it gets too hot in the night I have to turn the boiler off at the wall, which means getting up to a cold house! Any ideas please?

 

Turn off the eco button for hot water preheat and see if that makes any difference cheers jon at JB Heating.

Hi, Could anyone please recommend a good gas engineer/company for a boiler service in the Stannington area?

 

Cheers

Our electric shower has stopped producing hot water and we are undecided on how to fix it - whether to replace with another electric shower or whether to change the boiler to a combi and run the shower from that. The reason being that the hot water pressure is poor in the house anyway, and the electric shower was also feeble at best.

 

 

Any advice?

Does anyone know roughly how much it would cost to replace a central heating system which has an old back boiler, for a good Combi-Boiler system please, and also a reputable firm to do it .....?

Thinking of having my boiler moved around from the side of the kitchen so I get a clear wall, to the end roughly around 6 feet. Also maybe a radiator added to the system or would a double rad fit in the place of a single or would the pipes need altering.

Hi i would say you could do either with the radiator situation, there are ways to re-jig the pipes to fit a double in place of a single cheers Jon at
