It's already installed, so that's not an issue. I suppose you're
going
to say that they blow carbon monoxide all over the house, or that
flames
will come shooting out of the vents ...


yes the older models could pump c/o around the house....less and less
gas engineers are requalifying to work on warm air as there is no money
in it...the goverment is pushing to stop the sales of less efficiant c/h
systems and this is putting the final nail in the coffin for warm
air....however there are folks that like warm air...its possible to
intall a wet ch boiler that sources heat to a warm air unit via a
special heat exchanger...expensive and Ive never saw one installed in
the uk ..


Odd. I have a CH boiler feeding half a dozen fan convectors...

That is how you do it hese days.
