New combi-boiler or new storage tank?

[alann69]

Hi,

My current combi boiler has unfortunately passed its sell by date after 20yrs of reliable service (it keeps leaking and loosing preasure).

The question I have is, should I replace my current combi-boiler with a new one, or have a new water storage tank? I live in a 5 bedroom house and I personally think I should have a new water tank installed as I've found that I loose preasure and temperature when using more than one outlet.

Can someone advise me please?

If you have had a combi for 20 years and managed I am pretty sure that a good modern combi would be sufficient

unless you have add to the family

A properly sized combi will meet your needs. May aswell replace the one you have with one of the right size. Saves thousands getting a tank and a new boiler installed then all the work involved.

Any idea how much I could expect to pay?

About 29 quid for some new work boots

ps I do have a sense of humor

I don't.....only joking. I'll be getting someone to put a new boiler in and wondered how much it should cost.
