Hi everyone-im a first time poster and after some info on what type of boiler to fit to my repiped house.
I have an old large house which has currently got a 70kw oil boiler with a single pipe system and pipework is approx 4 inch threaded steel-mega inefficient with school type radiators-the heating system looks to be original to the 1930s house which im guessing was rare in them days-think it used to be worked via a furnace.
The house has been repiped halfway from boiler room in 28mm hep20 plastic and then reduced to 22mm and I'm going to renew all radiators to a modern version of the column type.
I'm thinking of having fitted a Worcester danesmoor 25/32 oil boiler but there are a few different types-which one will i need.
Also I had a heatrea sadia unvented 210 litre tank fitted and repiped separately last year and it came pre plumbed so has a pump and zone valves included in it so at the moment this is just working off the immersion. So will I req a system boiler or heat only.
I've owned the house for 3 years and it is regularly 12 -14 degrees inside so I'm hoping this new system will bring it into the 21st century.
Currently got logburner running every evening to try and stay alive ha ha.
any help much appreciated
I've tallied up all the rads and immersion and I came up with just over 80,000 btu.
