We've just gone for a closed system with pressurised hot water and I
wish we'd done it years ago. We also replaced all our rads, but this
was mainly because the old system was on a single pipe, which is pants.

We went for one of these cylinders.

We actually got the dual fuel version as we might go for solar panels
later on. This meant that some parts of the install were at 5% VAT,
which is nice.
