I am potentially needing to replace my boiler as it has just broken. I was intending on replacing in 12 months when we were planning on extending the ground floor but unfortunately not the way it has panned out.
I currently have a Combi boiler and will replace with a Combi as well. As part of the ground floor extension I will be adding underfloor heating (a wet system). Are there any considerations for me buying the boiler today? Or can UFH just be retrofitted when ground floor is done and radiators in ground floor are removed. We will still have 6 radiators upstairs.
Also from a size perspective is 30kw right for UFH, 6 radiators and 2 bathrooms (1 bath shower combo, 1 shower).
You could look into an air source heat pump if you have the space. We’re doing the same as you, rads in the house and UFH in an extension. After the £5k government grant the quotes for combi or ASHP were very similar.
