This, 100% this.
We had one fitted 2 years ago and has given us reliable pressure hot water and heating ever since.
Ours sounded like yours with a mixture of shitty boiler, pumps and there was even a mystery mains heated cylinder previously there for the loft bathroom water tap.
Have never looked back after having an unvented system fitted.

I’m after some plumbing advice, something I have zero experience with.
Our main bathroom doesn’t get much use because the hot water that feeds the bath is really slow, being fed from a hot water tank housed in an airing cupboard on the floor above. There’s also an electric shower in there that we’re too scared to use as it was installed by the previous owner who fancied himself an electrician, but who’s work is often dangerous. I’d like to convert this to a standard shower, not electric.
We have a couple of en-suite showers that are powered by a pump at the hot water tank and they are great, so I’m wondering about upgrading that pump to something that could feed the shower in the main bathroom too (so three showers in total) and provide decent pressure to the bath as well.
If that’s feasible, we’d also need to plumb in a hot water feed to the shower, but is there anything I’m not considering? Or is there a better solution to all of this?
Many thanks
