Thanks for all the replies they have certainly given me some ideas,

my house isnt particularly big more unusual 60' deep by 18' across, the
boiler supplies 13 radiators + 1 towel rad. I fitted the boiler myself
and was concerned at the expansion vessel section however i was assured
it 'should' be o.k. my old system had 28mm flow and return pipes
running to the old tank in the centre of the house 30' each i utilised
these when fitting the combi boiler
i intend removing them and connecting into the 22mm pipes. I think it
will be best to fit an expansion vessel at the same time, just a couple
of questions, can the vessel be fitted anywhere on the system,? can you
recomend any particular make? would i create another problem by
oversizing an expansion vessel?

Whilst i am asking, when i fitted the boiler i installed trv's
upstairs, when doing the above i will probably fit an automatic bypass,
what is the ideal location to fit one of these

thanks again
