Just asking for a bit of advice really.
I have a gravity fed system in my house with a couple of odities they are that the boiler is in the bathroom and the hot water tank is in the bedroom and as the tank is only just higher than the boiler i only get the top quater of the tank hot when i have just the hot water on .In the winter it is o.k as the rads are on and the water is pumped around the system and i get a full tank of hot water.In the summer i can turn the rads of manually as theres a valve and turn the room stat full up to get a full hot tank ,but is there anyway i can alter things to do this automatically .
My solutions are
1: move boiler downstairs
2: fit thermostats to all rads
3: fit diverter valve (requires new controller i think)
your views of my solutions would be most welcome
