Heating systems installation

[Plumber 78]

Hi to all. Have quoted from two heating engineers for my new heating system. One with low loss header and three pump(hot water cylinder,heating zone 1,heating zone 2),one with out. The house is 5 bedroom with loft conversion and back extension,will have 20 radiators and 300l hot water cylinder. Can someone give me a advice what is the best choice,because it’s a big difference with the price. Thanks to all.

Nothing is there,builders just finishing loft and back extension,before is very poor gravity system.

The guy with the three pumps/zones and the low loss header sounds like he knows what he is doing.

As above.
Anyone who would be using a low loss header, is on the ball.

As the chaps have said a system with a low loss header would be ideal . cheers kop

Yes,main upgrade to 28mm,but pressure is only 1.5 bar, thinking to fit like that device,but not decide yet.
