Default Condensing Boiler problems

More misinformation. There are high flow rate combi's that will fill
a bath zippo.


They're not proper combis,


A combi is a heating and hot water system all in one box with no external
Tanks or cylinders. Hence the name "combi" from combination. It is a "one
box" solution. You just connect up the cold pipe in, hot pipe out and a
flow * return to the rads with a gas pipe. They save a hell of a lot of
time and space and are cheaper to install.

The proper high rate combis are actually
boilers integrated with an internal heat bank.


Some are, some have an integral unvented cylinder inside the box too. The
ECO-Hometec gives a flowrate of 22 litre/minute, which is infinitely
continuous, if that is what you mistakenly mean by a "proper combi".

There's nothing wrong with them, provided they are
sized to not run out of store filling a bath at full pelt.


You lack knowledge of the various types of "combi" available. This is very
sad,
