Sorry Kop. Youve lost me on this one....Never had a problem with Monarch water softeners and reasonably priced , I'd maybe think hard and get both boiler and cylinder done fit weather compensation is a must now to save energy. Kop

CAnt fit this as i havnt quite got the head height in the loft...I often spec for 'Gledhill platinum stainless indirect' cylinders. I rate them and they have the floating baffle that eliminates need for expansion vessel and adds a decent amount of accumulation that may help with your 'pressure' issues
Here's one I recommend around £500 . KopYeah, thats the one, it still works and gives us heat! Its bastard expensive to run mind...
Im not against upgrading it, but i need to justify the cost against the working unit tbh...
Water softners a thing to look at....? Whats the best thing without spending a million bucks....
Lost how mate? A new boiler and unvented cylinder with the boiler wired to a external weather sensor , I've recommended a water softener above . KopSorry Kop. Youve lost me on this one....
Many thanks Kop. External weather sensor....Lost how mate? A new boiler and unvented cylinder with the boiler wired to a external weather sensor , I've recommended a water softener above . Kop
SO, at present im on a y plan, am i right in thinking, with an unvented a cylinder, it would be best to change over to an s plan, with the two valves close to the boiler? And if so, do i require an extra 5 or 6 core wire to link up new valves,??Lost how mate?

Weather compensation, if that's what you are still considering (I've lost track), is incompatible with standard S-plan with a cylinder as one zone because most of the time the CH water is below the 65°C minimum needed to heat the cylinder.SO, at present im on a y plan, am i right in thinking, with an unvented a cylinder, it would be best to change over to an s plan, with the two valves close to the boiler?

5 core and basically yes I'd change the 3 port to two or even 3 - 2 ports zone valves does your property need to be as warm upstairs as it does downstairs?SO, at present im on a y plan, am i right in thinking, with an unvented a cylinder, it would be best to change over to an s plan, with the two valves close to the boiler?

If the y plan stays, i assume the new valve just goes near the cylinder somewhere and gets wired to the control centre....
Just want to try and do half a job! But do it right once!
New boiler is a bit costly at present...

Big bungalow? Still applies bedrooms and living areas can be split up all these little things add up to more control over your heating and savings on energy, the one big thing to remember is insulation 350 mm in your loft space is now the norm walls , floors I'd do the lot if I could in reality you probably can't but just do what you can.Bungalow....
4 bed, yeah, i suppose its big by todays standards, 80s...so insultaion is poor at least...on a hill to, so we catch the easterly blows!Big bungalow?
