Hello,
I have just moved my cylinder up to the loft and raised the tanks which were in there up above it. The system is a vented, fully pumped, indirect one.
With only the cylinder loop connected to the boiler (no rads hooked up yet) the flow gets very hot right up to the cylinder coil inlet, however the return is practically cold and the water in the cylinder is not heating up.
I have cracked open the cylinder unions and let any air out from filling etc bu to no avail. Given that the pump is simply circulating around the cylinder loop only I am looking for suggestions as to how the heated water gets up to the cylinder then just stops? Even if it was blocked surely the flow pipe up at the cylinder wouldn't get very hot?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Pete
