im thinking about fitting a new boiler,looking some tips on getting the right size of boiler.
at the minute i have a grant 50/90 boiler
if i add up the total btu's for my radiators it comes to 17,800 btu's (5.2 kw?)
Then if i go to one of those sites (energy saving trust) and insert my house info (type of house,size of house,insulation etc...) it comes up with 24 kw
Is the radiatior info irrelevant?
Do I go for a 24 kw (or nearest) boiler?
Thanks in anticipation
