Default Re: Delay in reaching temperature.

CG - hi. Are you sure of your facts? I can't believe that the manufacturers would publish dud information in today's tightly regulated world. Their instruction manual states that the max flow temp is 82 deg C. Also, I have asked widely on this subject in the plumbing fraternity and the Ideal Icos seems to have a good reputation.
The problem is now in the lap of the Gods. The builders have turned turned up trumps and fitted larger radiators. There is c 40% more radiating surface than before.
Readers might be interested to note that no one, repeat no one, has ever been able to refer me to an authoritative statement of a 'reasonable warm-up time'. Does this suggest a valid criticism of the white collar workers in the building industry's research centres?
