Lucky u. Drain it first tho!

Yes.

Its an unusual thing to do though. Is it for a secondary return, or for a shower pump draw off?

Must be a water saving shower pump Ray, they work a treat with combination tanks.

I would be more worried about the pump emptying the cold part of the combination tank far faster than the ballvalve can replace - then you would end up sucking plenty of air - not just bubbles.

Shower pumps and fortics don't really mix well.
