    Powermax 155 replacement

    Hi, I am quoting to replace a powermax for a vaillant 428 and megaflo and it comes out a bit pricey. A combi however big will not do. Does anyone have any suggestions for an alternative system, the main criteria is plenty of hot water to multiple outlets. Your suggestions would be appreciated.
