Hi Guys
I originally posted asking about what boiler system to put in for a 4/5 bed home wishing to achieve 3 showers running concurrently without loss of pressure nor hot water. Looked into all sorts and got plenty of advice, one option I had found was a semi commercial combi with storage tank (was the bees knees), and am sure this would have done the job, however turned out to be mega bucks.
I was asked to post what option I went for and can thoroughly recommend: -
Worcester Greenstar system boiler with megaflow cylinder, also upgraded to 22/25 mm water supply to provide the flow rate needed. This all works beautifully, no loss of pressure, in fact the force that comes out of our old bath/shower unit is so high I really need to replace it with a fixed head so it does not thrash about. Plenty of hot water plenty of pressure and a reasonable price. Its all in the loft so no loss of space. In fact removal of the old gravity fed system has given me loads more space in the ensuite and loft.
On another matter, hubby just been made redundant and is thinking about retraining, hes 42, previously in Marketing but has great practical and mathematical skills. What could he earn as a plumber/heating engineer and are there any real gaps in the market if he wanted to specialise in a particular area?
