Hi,
As per title, just updating the bathroom while I am spending the time at home.
Since we moved in, I'd noticed the bathroom rad became hot whenever boiler demand was called. But hadn't really thought too much of it.
Just traced the plumbing back and it runs between ch flow and hotwater return.
I'm guessing it's getting return flow around it.
It's the only rad plumbed in 15mm, everything else is in 10mm microbore and it's closest to the pump.
Is this a problem?
And if it is, what would be the best solution?
I was thinking of finding the microbore manifolds and taking off the 22mm closer by and running 10mm back to the rad?
The rad is between the 22mm - 15mm reducers.
All the pipework goes up to the pump and hotwater cylinder.
Thanks
