What Type of Hot Water System?

[jshell]

Are people going back to traditional boiler/hot water storage or mega-flow unvented cylinders rather than a combi-boiler only? I like the combi, but my heating engineer has recommended the megaflo system. I may be putting in an underfloor heating system in the new 50m2 extension...

Thanks for the quick replies! There are 3 of us in what will become a 4-bedroom, 2 bathroom house, but will have elderly guests. Folks are getting old, so I can see them spending more and more time with us in future.

I love the combi, but if the gas goes or the combi fails we're fecked - no hot water. With the storage, at least there is the option of an immersion heater to get through! It's an ex[ensive install, though, and we lose cupboard space to get it.
