Must confess I am reluctant to take the sealed system route.
Partly due to lack of confidence in existing within-concrete-floor

As stated, the house is 1970s build. Do you happen to know whether

Even a sealed system will run at a *lower* pressure than your mains cold
water supply. Presumably that is ok?
