    Hi,

    I'm going to get a new boiler in a 4 bed semi house(1200 sq feet), one installer suggests 24Ri but others suggest 30Ri, I'm a bit confused now, could you share your view?

    Best Regards

    Do you mean 24 or 30kw boiler or a boiler model?

    Hi esox28:

    I mean 24 or 30kw boiler, would 24kw be sufficient for a 4 bed semi house?

    Many Thanks

    Even 24kw seem excessive for a 1200*ft house, id be looking more at an 18kw boiler, a v- rough guide is 1kw / rad, plus 3kw for hot water.
