Backboiler has old type mechanical all day-once-twice-off type hot water and heating.
With the water only on the boiler kick on but no water seems to reach the tank. With hotwater and heating on the water gets hot as do the rads.
Now i cant see how the hot water can work on a thermal basis as the pump is connected direct to the boiler before it 'T's off in 22 to hot water and 15 to rads. Is this normal ? Should it work ?
The rads have a gate valve in one leg, closing this and selecting heating gets hot water with the pump running. The council wouldnt have a tenant opening and closing the valve for summer/winter would they ?
