Can someone please help with some advice. I have recently moved into a much larger house and have found that the central heating does not warm all the radiators very well. I have tried balancing but although improved the rads are nowhere near the heat at my last house. The pump used is a Grundfos 15/60, my question is the house has 23 radiators, approx 18 are large doubles, should i be looking for a replacement pump and if so how can i calculate the size i need, from waht i understand the pump i have is quite a powerful domestice version but i cany help feeling its not pwerful enough as its the same as in my last house which was quite smaller.

any help anyone can give greatly appreciated.

Regards

What is the size of your boiler ?
You have a high head pump already but it is of no use if the boiler is not
big enough or the pipework from the boiler to the heating system equally not
big enough ( unfortunately we are now into the realms of correctly sizing a
heating system )
