Advice on oil boilers

[fatbarman]

Hi,
I know very little about this topic and would like some guidance and advice on which boiler I should be looking at, as there are so many makes and models available. I am going for oil for various reasons.
I have a small 2 bedroom cottage. A log burning stove as a main heat source (not connected to radiators), no storage tank. The boiler will be for hot water and the heating of 6 radiators. Can you give me a steer on the most economic options available as I am on a fairly tight budget, and all the accessories I will need. I am told by my plumber that I need a Combi Condensing Boiler with an output of 80,000 btu.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,
Mark

PS. Any advice on storage tanks (size, make, model) would also be great.

Hi
I would think 30,000 BTU is about as much as you would need, Go for a simple combi if you have reasonable mains pressure and it does not fluctuate too much. otherwise just have a standard boiler with an indirect cylinder and a small header tank for the CH (10 to 20 litres) and a larger (100 l ) for hot water provision. Look at the local 'free' paper or askk for recommendations for the company
