Must replace 16 year old system gas boiler that was heating rads & copper cylinder. Thinking of going for new Combi boiler. What are implications for copper cylinder. With Combi, where does water for hot taps come from. Does it come from attic storage tank, through the Combi & from the Combi straight to the taps. If this is the way, is Combi suitable for lime hard water. Heating throgh the coil in the cylinder the old boiler was using a closed water circuit.
One installer said, that for Combi boiler - the system must be changed to a pressurised system - what is this - is he right -gave the impression it was a major job.
Can the copper cylinder & immersion heater be retained with a Combi boiler system - in case there is a gas failure.
