Hi,
I am sure there are some heating engineers/plumbers on here.....
We have a rental cottage that we cant let at the moment due to it not meeting the new epc rules that changed as of 1st April.
We have looked at the options to find the required 9 points and a new boiler seems to be the way forward.
The cottage is a large 5 bed and is currently heated by oil fired "stanley" with hot water tank.
My question is should we go for an oil combination boiler and remove the hot water cylinder
or
keep the existing system and just swap the "stanley" for a non combi oil boiler
We did consider electric boiler for ease of installation but we were told they do give as good energy efficiency as oil boilers.
Any input appreciated
Thanks
