Hi,
Have a friend with a brand new Baxi Platinum 24HE "System Boiler", and I need a new Combi boiler. They look identical, and the only difference we can see is the diverter valve. In the Combi it should have a 'T' and in his System one it just goes out to one outlet, to connect to a cylinder. Is it just a matter of replacing that with a T from their Combi model, does anyone know, or are there more complicated things to worry about? -- Thanks, Me Try Google Quik-e-search™ at www.Superhighstreet.com/home ....Finds anything or they buy it for you! |

If you want to convert it to a combi. Buy a plate heat exchanger, a flow switch, blending valve and an electric 3-way "diverting" valve. Have the flowswitch on the cold mains to the plate, when activated. it fires the boiler and diverts the 3-way valve to send all the boilers flow to the plate. All the boilers output will go through the plate heat exchanger. The blending valve will set the output temperature. If you can get some of the components inside the case fine. I think most would all be outside. Could be in the cupboard under the sink well insulated. |

Buying the parts separately is much cheaper. Using this box, you can fit a large, say 50kW boiler and it will deliver amazing flowrates. |

That and their shower master look interesting. No mention of prices on their site, which probably means they are expensive. I couldn't find an alternative source using google. They are special made to order. |

That is the wrong box: "Ideal for use on district heating and central boiler applications." This convertes a normal boioer to give instant hot water: http://www.heatweb.com/products/showermaster/showermaster.htm |
