Hello,
quick question! I was asked to look at a problem with a hot water system today, however when I got there I found it to be an indirect cylinder that was doing the hot water and a worcester combi doing the heating.
I had a quick look round, checked the immersion for power and then noticed why the hot water was on, the two port zone valve coming from the heating pipework was manually set to open.
So my question is this: Is it ok for the valve to be set to open, obviously the hot water is only going to be on when the boiler is on, but as long as its safe Im not too bothered. Or, is the 2 port linked to the cylinder safety stat and need to be on auto?
As I dont have an unvented ticket and dont really deal with much domestic systems I just had a quick look, iif this isnt safe then I will get one of the other lads to go own tomorrow and deal with it. Or is it ok to leave it as it is, even though it may not be too efficient?
Thanks.
