Afternoon each

A friend of mine recently bought a bungalow and increased most of the radiators from singles to doubles.

The existing pump, a WiloGold RS60, is very noisy and vibrating and needs replacing.

Yesterday it was suggested he replace the failing pump with a
Grundfos UPS2 15-50/60. Since then he has told me that he increased the capacity of the radiators.

Can anyone please advise if he should increase the capacity of the pump ?. If so can anyone suggest a make and to what capacity and preferably one that will fit the same spacings between the isolating valves ?

As always any advice will be greatly appreciated
 
if he's just changing from singles to doubles k2's he will be fine
