| What
Size Boiler Output Am I Likely To Need? |
The following is offered as an example, not a definitive guide.
Every litre of capacity in a boiler provides about 86.5 watts
(.865kW) or 295 BTU's. As a very general guide an average
3 bedroom house is likely to require a boiler output somewhere
in the region of 5.86kW to 8.79kW or 20,000 to 30,000 BTU's,
with 75% needed for central heating and 25% for hot water. |
| Always
Seek Professional Advice Before Making A Final Decision |
While
we hope this information will be helpful, we must emphasise
that these figures
should only be used as a guide because of the many factors
that will govern each individual installation. A proper survey
should be carried out by a qualified heating engineer.
....Please
seek advice from your Villager dealer before a final order
is placed. |
| Villager
Boilers Are Virtually Maintenance Free |
| For
those customers who wish to burn wood or multi-fuel on a regular
basis, a Villager stove with the correct boiler output is
a very cost effective option. For one thing, a stove on a
hearth is much more pleasant to look at and enjoy than a blank
radiator. In addition the boiler will be virtually maintenance
free and almost certainly cost significantly less to buy and
install than it's more conventional square box counterparts. |
