|
|
| i currently have a baxi bermuda 572 system that is on the blink. would it be possible to install a combi boiler using the same rads. i know the pipes will have to be changed either way. also, would it be possible to bypass the current back boiler and fire so that the fire can be removed and the hole in the wall plastered as we dont use the fire?? any tips will be most welcome before i get any quotes. Thanx in advance. |

| i forgot to add that there are only 5 rads in my house, three downstairs and two upstairs. Also, could you tell me approximately what kind of price i may be looking at. dont wanna get overcharged by a cowboy. Thanx |

| Yes to all q's I think. Make sre you know the shortcomings of a combi. System should be flushed, and trv's oput on bedroom rads at least, with a room thermostat. Loft tanks and HW cylinder to remove. £1500 to £2500 depending... |
