We have the old style Baxi boiler behind a gas fire in the living room and the hot water tank in a cupboard beside it. It can be a bit noisy if there is a NNE wind as it whistles down the chimney a bit, but at least when the hydro is off we have one room we can keep warm in, and a gas cooker to make hot food and drinks.
The council are replacing this old style heating with new combi boilers, either in a cupboard or on the kitchen wall as they are supposed to be better, but there have been a lot of problems with the installation and leaks afterwards and pressure keeps dropping.
Gas safe survey is the way to go before making a huge investment.
