I'm not sure if there will be specific requirements on the windows that we can put in...I know with my sister's place in town she had to get specific windows and ended up costing £5k for 4.... | |

Warm Front seems to be an England only scheme | |

Nup not really, only if your an OAP they pay for the lot for you - Full central heating kit, cavity/wall insulation etc. Didnt think there were any grants for the average hardworker. | |

Infact the place your buying the radiators from will work it out for you, just work out, room length/width, floor to ceiling height, floor construction, number of outside walls in the room. | |

Yeah theres nothing much to it tbh, just make sure the radiators you buy are big enough (big enough heat output) to heat the room (you can get a heating calculator to work those out) & the combi had the ability to meet the heat requirements, both central heating & hotwater...also shower to be taken into account if your having a thermostatic one fitted. I gather you can get a shot of the pipe benders because there the only pricy tool required, that said you can hire them out for a couple quid a day. | |
