Hi all,

I will be fitting new radiators all round the house when it warms up a bit more and I can convince my missus to turn the heating off. Can I run a combi boiler (for hot water taps) with no water in the central heating system. Obviously wont be using the heating but was wondering if I needed to fill the heating if the boiler was needed for showers etc.

Thanks in advance

Regards
Al
 
make make and model of boiler do you have?
 
I might set up a short loop then, 1 radiator and return. Cap off after 1st radiator

regards Al
