Sizing an expansion vessel - help needed

championc · 2024-03-17 21:26:21

Hi all How do I size an expansion vessel ? I'm planning a Heatpump install. The house currently has 10 medium sized double rads. Would a 12litre be sufficient, or if not what size would you recommend ? Thanks in advance

Ypou can't oversize a EV, some use as a rule of thumb, one litre per rad, or just use my decades old spreadsheet.
