Hi, I have recently fitted central heating to a large house, the system runs 14 radiators and the total BTU requirement is ~59k.
I have chosen a Worcester Bosch 32 CDi Compact for my boiler. The boiler heat output seems to be ample for my system and hot water needs.
My only question is, if 22mm copper pipe can only comfortably supply about 45k BTUs, and the boiler has a 22mm output, how will this be enough to support my whole system??
The pipes from where the boiler is going are a 22mm feed for the top two floors, needing about 29k BTU, and another 22mm feed for downstairs, about 21k BTU. Will the 22mm boiler output not supply my system to full heat? I assumed a 28mm boiler output would cover this, but am hard pressed to find any reasonable sized units that have this.
Any advice is much appreciated, James
