First post so be patient and understanding
Just moved into a house with a thermal store ch and dhw system. It’s supplied by an oil fired boiler and wood burning stove.
The system is working but not well so I thought I’d check it over. I’m convinced the wiring on the two thermostats are wrong
The tank thermostat looks like this
so the stat is connect to com and 2 should it be set to com and 1. This stat is set to 65c. The water doesn’t get that hot. I suspect because the stat on the boiler is too low
The other stat is on the return pipe to the wood burning stove
my understanding is this one turns ON the circulating pump when the stove is producing heat to ensure the
Burner doesn’t boil the water.
so this should be com and 2 and set around 60c
can someone either confirm my ideas or shoot me down.
I had a plumber look at he put he wanted to take out the whole system and replace because he thinks the thermal store and wood burner rarely works well. He didn’t take the covers off the stats
If it relevant the controller is a Honeywell evohome system but with only1 zone
thanks in anticipation
