I need to spec a boiler and hot water cylinder or multiple of both for a property with the following:
5 x showers
1 x bath
18 x rads
Its a re-furb so gas and water can be upgraded if required.
Anyone got any suggestions? It will need fast re-heat capabilities on the hot water.
I have just moved house and need to wire in my CM927 into a Potterton EP2002.
The plan is to let the EP2002 control the hot water and switch the CH on all the time on the EP and control the heating from the wireless CM927.

Can anyone please inform me if the rules for beams are the same as joists? Planning on putting 2x 22 & 2x 15 runs through the centre of the beam and its occured to me that the rules would probably be more stringent than for joists as it has to bear more load.
