Small light LPG combi boiler.

[Millsy 82]

What is the smallest lightest combi boiler?

What it is I am living in a mobile home and all we have is a water heater and fire the water flow rate is shocking and the fire heats 1 room perfectly but when you go to the toilet or bedroom it's freezing!

So I am thinking of installing a combi in and a few rads. But I am after something small (only want 24kw) and light as the walls are rubbish obviously.

I was thinking of strengthening the walls but not sure how I am going to do this yet.

icombi 24's are like tin cans, and are cheap as hell, not sure if ideal to an lpg kit for them though

You might be best looking for a boiler that is specifically designed for mobile homes. Morco I think is one brand. They've always been fitted in the caravans I've stayed in. But I'm sure most manufacturers do lpg conversion kits now, so might be best just to look for the weight vs price and then double check there's an lpg version.

alde heating is the make used for wet caravan systems floor standing work from 12v or with an adaptor downside is they are £1800

Build a support which will take the weight and fit anything you are confident with. much cheaper than trying to fit nasty stuff.

Morco feb24E is what is fitted in a lot of statics. They're generally just fitted onto a piece of board screwed to the uprights. When we used to do grant jobs in statics we had to fit Ideal Isars at 50kg a pop. I used to fit a piece of board floor to ceiling to take the weight.

How about an Intergas HRE 24/18. The advantage this has over most other combis is you can still have hot water if you drain the heating. You can even fit the boiler and pipe up hot water, then leave the radiators for a later date if the budget is a bit tight. I'm not a huge fan of Morco's, I don't think they work out much cheaper.

You will need a decent board to fix to for any boiler no matter how light they are.
