Neither have you considered space *heating* requirements. There seems to be
a general assumption with combis that if you size them to deliver sufficient
hot water, they will automatically heat your house ok. Nevertheless, you
really need to validate this - as for any type of boiler - by calculating
heat losses for each room and adding them up to arrive at the total space
heating requirement. If this turns out to be bigger than the water heating
requirement, you will need an even bigger combi!
