Hot Water System FAQ:


Boiler changed to combi.
Old system had a branch from the outflow through a coil in the tank.
Plumber just linked this to the inflow when he removed the tank.
To me this seems like a short curcuit, a low resistance short way for much of the hot water to go straight back to the boiler.
I said to the plumber wouldnt it be better just to block these (forcing all the water to go round the rads)
He said ‘no then ur only return is through the rads, I like to keep things moving a bit!’???
Does his theory make sense?
The rads are still getting warm but I cant believe that in parrallel short curcuit is helping??
