Hey guys, just wondering about my hot water. We always had the thermostat set to 21-23ish through the summer and the water was always perfectly hot, however in the last few weeks we've noticed its not. Is this simply due to the water being colder to begin with or is that irelevant?

We have a 2 year old oil boiler that heats water and rads. Also a megaflo, altho i dont really know what this does :)

TIA

Irrelavant if your megaflo is your only source of hot water.

The magaflo is an un-vented hot water cylinder. It has a cylinder stat hidden behind the large plastic door near the bottom of the cylinder. This would usually be set to 60C.

I would check your boiler stat is set high enough first off though. Usually around 3/4 round the dial is about right.
