just trying to give another opinion
Hello Heinbloed,
Lookit the simple point I have been trying to make here is that all common sense and
practical opinion points to the fact that a combi bolier does not suit every situation.
I am not saying that they are bad or useless or anything else simply that they are recommended
by all and sundry in the industry for apartments/ small houses ie. expected low water demand
and are considered less beneficial for "larger houses" or higher demand.
Now I know from previous posting with you, that you don't like to admit when you are wrong. Look
there is no shame in being wrong. It's ok to accept other people's opinions. In this case I think you
are wrong especially if you decide you are more of an expert than the industry itself.
I notice you always seem give your opinion based on the soultion you have chosen for your situation/house, therefore it is the correct one and so no other opinion is valid. This is a very incorrect assumpion.
>>What doe you mean by "large houses" ?Most MODULATING combi condensing boilers are suitable for 2-3 taps
>>opened at once,as you pointed out "liters per minute" is the indicator for that.
As you say what is a large house? How long is a piece of string? For argument sake you could say
the perception in the building industry of a small house is less then 100 sqm. But then you could
have a couple living in this house or a a familiy of 7 and water demand is different in each case.
Have a look here for example. Now as I know you take everything very literally so I am not saying this
information is the best, but it has some good information on the pro's and con's.

>>And since we are talking plumbing:there is a system called a "closed loop"
Yes this is also called 'unvented' which I mentioned in my previous post !
>>And why would it be illegal to boost the water pressure that you pay for ?And why boosting something
>>that is good enough anyhow?
It was you who made the boosting suggestion initially by the way.
>>That is , if you pay for.Because if you pay for it
>>you have a contract that states accurately what the delivery includes-quality
>>and quantity.(How would a swimming pool with hundreds of cubic meter be refilled
>>if the water trickles only?) The same with electricity and gas.If you don't pay
>>for it the quantity and quality is not guaranteed. You can usually read the
>>available pressure at the meter .And if you have none than get one.Don't demand
>>the public to pay for it-they don't use your bath.
I have no idea what you are trying to say here, it is just a jumble ...
