Hello!
I wonder if someone could give me some advice on an installation please.
Basicly, i plan to install a twin impeller pump to power a bathroom which has whb, bath and mixer shower.
I live in a bungalow and the cold water storage tank and hot water cylinder are both stored in the eaves space. The cold tank sit on a shelf above the hot cylinder.
I would like to upgrade both the cold tank and hot cylinder to larger ones. The cold tank is not a problem but the hot cylinder is as if i install a larger one the top of it will will be above the outlet of the cold tank and i would think this would cause problems.
Therefore i am wondering if i can install two cylinders of the same size and join them together. Has anyone had any experience in doing this or would this just not work?
I have drawn a diagram of what i propose and would like some comments please.
Would the hot water draw off of both cylinders be equal and would they fill at an equal rate also? Would i need a boiler upgrade also maybe?
An image of what i propose is here
Thank you for your time and i look forward to hearing your comments please.
Seems a great idea in theory but i have no idea whether it would work!!
Regards
Adrian
