As a Dane living in the U.K., I agree. I’d never seen an atmospheric pressure water system growing up but coming here, that seemed the norm. Now, 20 years after, the norm in U.K. new installation is high pressure water systems (so called “system boilers”) so it is changing slowly. But in the U.K. they have an almost mortal fear for high pressure systems, thinking they’ll explode at any moment.
