Hi Gents

My question is how do you sizing this to the property, what should i take into consideration. What is the best quality for money???
 
There is an alternative. Just call the manufacturers and ask their advice. I have never yet been let down by a manus advice re pumping. All ask extensive questions to make sure you get what is appropriate.
 
What mains pressure and flow rate are you currently getting?

pressure maybe 1 - 1.5bar but i will have to checked, flow rate no idea is it meter?


have dedicated space kind of utility/plant room but is not very much, not for 1000l or more this 500 looks grate and it will fits, but i am not sure if the efficiency will be right or might be to much and i will spend lots of money needlessly

ok , before I would specify anything on this job I would want to know
1. heating system full details
2. present water pressure & volume per. min...and customer expectation
3. building lifestyle ..how many people..is it domestic or commercial
4. future plans extensions etc
5. customers intended budget to makecsure we are all singing off thevsame hymm sheet.
then I would produce a specification get it approved, put a fixed price quotation in at proper commercial rates draw a contract up, take a deposit and deliver it in specified timescale
subject to variations

however if the op puts up the info properly we can all have a proper look in my opinion

Hi Rob,
1. I don't know probably full details of heating system but i can tell you there is 12 radiators (4towell rails) , boiler Vaillant 30kw, 4 zones (1 underfloor heating) but i don't know why you ask about the heating if i need suite only pressure and flow rate???
2. 1.5 bar, volume i don't know? But i read 18l/min is descent
3. 2+2 family + 2 parents/visitors. It is my house.
4. no more kids🙂 no extensions. Just sort this house nicely
5. budget i don't know i would like to buy something right quality to money and install my self. I know how to hold spanners and pliers.
