Hi all

Been flat out and hardly had time to get on here for a while. Hope you're all keeping well.

Just been offered a pub refurb where currently they have combination of electric/oil and have had a new 32mm gas main installed for the refurb. Above the pub is a 3 bed flat with one large bathroom, then there are two bars, a restaurant room, a commercial kitchen area and public toilets. I am waiting for more info and to visit to quote, but if it was a domestic house that size then I would be expecting to set it up with 2-3 zones with separate programmeable stats and something like a 35-40kw system boiler (stab in the dark until I can get in and measure up). It's a two storey solid walled georgian property with single glazed sash windows. For the DHW approximately 250 litre unvented for one bathroom, the kitchen and the lavs (subject to pressure/flow) but I am wondering about the differences in a small commercial setup?

My first thoughts are that the programmeable stats/controllers don't want to be accessible for customers, so will need remote stats.
You should have a secondary return for the water for the public toilets/kitchen.
What about sizing of water demand for the kitchen/toilets?
Is it maybe best to have a separate combi for the flat with its own controller and a separate system for the pub with a smaller boiler, 3 zones (restaurant, bar 1 & bar 2) and an unvented cylinder?
I know a lot will be down to budget/personal preference etc but any guidance on different setups from those that have done this before would be appreciated.
As for the kitchen, I was going to chat about what appliances they intend to install and see whether I can install that on the back of domestic ACS. If I do need to get someone in if it overlaps into commercial then I'd be fine to do so.

If anyone has any guidance that would be top.
