What size heatpac?

3010dermot · 2020-09-24 15:52:06

Hi. Hope someone can help me. I'm doing a loft conversion on a bungalow. Turning it into a self contained 2 bed apartment. I wondering what size heatpac to get. There will be a max of 5no 1m - 1.2.m double rads. Maybe not even that many. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

A Grant or Firebird 50/90, 15kw/26kw, should be fine IMO, they are normally dispatched I think, set to ~ 20kw but the output can be easily changed by a nozzle change, I have a 15 year old 70/90 set to 20 kw which, once my 10 rads are up to temperature in ~ 25 minutes will only cycle on for 25/40% of the time depending on weather conditions.
