My brother has just bought his first house and it currently has a conventional gravity system with a standard boiler (old 15 year old gloworm).
Mains pressure/flow rate is 3.5bar/14lpm.
2 floors (ground and 1st), 5 rad system. 1 bathroom, 1 toilet, 1 kitchen.
I've recommended a combi system as he wants rid of the cylinder and loft tanks, which I'm planning to install for him as soon as I get my gas ticket (hopefully by end of the month).
All the cold outlets are on mains already.
I've assisted on 2 upgrades from conventional to combi but was unable to always watch what the guy was doing re: connecting pipework.
So I was looking for some advice really on undertaking a task like this and methods/tips etc.
Cheers in advance
