A friend has just had his CH boiler replaced.

He was told by a local company he HAD to fit a condensing boiler, HAD to
convert his 3 port valve to two two port valves, HAD to have thermostatic
rad valves fitted- all to comply with new regulations. The boiler bit seems
reasonable but the others don't.

(Also, a 'power flush' of the old system was recommended.)

Do the new regs (which I understand come into play Apr 05) specify these
upgrades to existing (20 year old) systems?
