So that makes a maximum heat leakage of 3160/24 = 132W However that would likely be on a temperture difference of (say) 70C versus a plausible difference of (say) 40C. Also the size for the cylinder might account for (say) 40% more than a 1050x450 cylinder. I allowed 100W in the back of my mind when making the earlier posts. Seems I was probably a bit generous. Yeah, I wouldn't be happy leaving a 150W light bulb on 24/7, but with gas it's 5p a day so not at the level I'd worry about. For a 'Hydraflow' cylinder, 125L at 60C : http://www.chaffoteaux.co.uk/pdf/hydraflo_pb.pdf it quotes 1.9kWh/24h, say 2.25kWh with the boiler at 80% efficiency, giving 775kWh/yr. Though up to half of the year the lost heat could be counted towards normal heating, so coming out at 387kWh year. Still I wouldn't say it was minimal, as a good fridge runs to about 150kWh/yr and dishwasher as low as 237kWh/yr. cheers, Pete. |

What you have to remember is John lives in a world where baths are half the normal size that people would choose, and showers are more than adequate at dog pee flow and temperature.

So that means a normal bath will be filled no problem. It is not a matter of debate. It just happens. So get this shower performance in an average house you either need a very large cylinder or a grossly oversized (for most houses) boiler. Unless I'm missing something ..... I think you lost the thread a little. I gave an example of the know-it-alls giving bad advise downsizing cylinders. Paul Barker says as 24Kw combi is more than fine for a shower. Grossly oversized boiler? We are coming to the one size fits all, around 24kW, using modulation. Aks anyone who has a combi in a flat. The rads are hot within a few minutes, a great bonus, then it throttles back. You can get a combi for £350 and not use the DHW section. Ravenheat encourage this. Many installers do this as combi's are cost effective due to mass take up and manufacturing. _________________________________________ Usenet Zone Free Binaries Usenet Server More than 120,000 groups Unlimited download http://www.usenetzone.com to open account |
