Others have already commented on competence issues related to gas

so I won't repeat all that.

However, I'm faced with the question "Why would anyone conceivably

replace a conventional boiler with a combi?"

What a stupid question!! The advantages of combi boilers are well

As are the disadvantages, such as the poor results when the available
water flow is poor.

As with any mains fed system.

And when the available water flow is good, the advantages fly.


Provided that the boiler is large enough for the application.

Of course, that is stating the obvious. Why would you have one too small?
