Why wasn't the cylinder installed to current regulations - fully pumped with the minimum level of controls?

Cheers
 
Erm, why would the poster know why the cylinder wasn't installed properly? Isn't that what he paid someone to do?

About as helpful as a fart in the bath. Cheers!

Get a cylinder stat fitted, but for the meanwhile turn the boiler stat down. As an aside, stupid question but, if you've got an immersion fitted, it hasn't been left on has it ?
 
How can he fit a cylinder sta on a gravity system? I havem't seen a Cyltrol for ages (thank f**k)

Cheers
