Worcester Bosch 30 Ri or Worcester Combi equivalent size

[Stants]

Hi I was initially having a Megaflo ( 170 L ) and a Worcester Bosch 30 ( RI System Boiler ) in a loft conversion The guy that was doing the work can no longer do it

so I was getting another quote for the same set up and the question came up again " why don't you have a Combi boiler ( worcester Bosh again ) its less fuss / things to go wrong cheaper " etc. its just I've always heard problems with pressure and also them going cold if you was having a shower and someone turns another hot tap on it goes cold , plus no back up hotwater if they go wrong but was told they are much better now ! is this the case are they much better now ? the set up in the house would be

Shower in Loft , sink , toilet plus thats where the boiler will be sited and having a new 25 mm MDPE main from road ( plus the megaflo if i go that route )

first floor bath and mixer shower , sink toilet

ground Toilet . sink and kitchen Sink

are they better now ?

Cheers

PS I've got a quote from the new guy for both set ups and im ok with them he said Ill do what you want . so hes not trying to favour one system over another

If you want more than one hot outlet open at a time always unvented if you have the space

I'd always go Cylinder and Boiler over combi if you've got the room and budget.

IMO there's less to go wrong on a cylinder and system boiler than a combi tbh.

Cheers was my original intention to go for the cylinder and System boiler but as it was a new guy quoting it seems a popular thing for them to say go for a Combi instead maybe because they are easier to install

Just check your plumber is qualified to install unvented cylinders. Cylinder is the best option for more than one bathroom.

yeah was all set up and happy to go with Cylinder then had a new Guy round to quote then as always for me it seems I got " why don't you go for combi " but sticking to me guns and going for cylinder got another guy coming round soonish for anther quote
cheers for your reply
