There should be a STD reply combi s are no good if you have more than one bathroom end of IMHO this story has gone on for years and the answer is always the same NO

But the problem is what you see above. Some Engineers will still fit big combi’s in 4/5/6 bed houses. Even when they know they shouldn’t. The response you get is (well don’t use both bathrooms at the same time) I have a 4 bed with 2 bathrooms and I moved i to it because it had 2 bathrooms and I intended to use them 😀😀😀

Spot on it being going on for years cause they are a simple fit with relative high profit my gaff is 5 beds over 3 floors 3 bathrooms and I use a 30 kw wall hung conventional system it’s lovely

Some people need the extra space in th A/C
Some cant afford a new boiler and cylinder install
Im not saying a combi is the best option but it does the job if you know the limitations.

It’s easy to tell there are 6 semis and we all have huge gardens so I put a deal together in 2006 but it fell thro but it’s come back so all 6 houses have signed up to sell and we get the price of our land which is more than the houses are worth , it’s been a hard route but we are all there now so it will be 35=flats with parking etc

I fully understand that. But there are always ways around that. Like doing it a bit at a time. Or finance. Better you do it right the first time rather then pay out be disappointed and then have to go back to the original plan.

We don’t know yet but have two other smaller places anyway most probably we will get a couple of small jobs for the kids to buy to let from us dont really know another one in north Cornwall is a good option as they are cheap at present cause the Londoners have no dosh

I often fit a combi in a big property but also fit a unvented cylinder for supplying the upper floors i can't see the point in wasting water to get hot water to the kitchen , cloakroom or utility when the boiler is sited there , i agree with harvest it's all in the planning just cut your connections in and valve off future work can then be done with the minimum of disruption.
