Replacing one combi for another does not involve removing the hot tank and the tanks in the loft. Swapping a conventional boiler for a combi will cost more.0 -
If you have 2 (or more) bathrooms, you are better off with conventional boiler.
I have a large house with a combi boiler (it was there when I moved in).
If my wife opens kitchen tap while I'm taking shower, the shower just drips water
The only solution is to fit a power shower.Happiness is buying an item and then not checking its price after a month to discover it was reduced further.0 -
Last year we spent just over £3000 having a conventional replaced by a combi. However, this included all new radiators, new pipe run (meter to boiler), removing and refitting a gas fire and a replacement of the toilet syphon .0

If you got a Worcester or Vaillant boiler in that price too, that is a good price.0
