Hi... quick question...
On the photo above, there are two thermostats attached to the cylinder, one halfway down which controls the hot water temperature (currently set at about 60C) but there is another at the top left of the photo, near the top of the tank. I've identified it as a safety cut out thermostat, but tracing the cable back it seems it has nothing to do with the central heating system, it goes to the solar heating controller?
Does this mean this safety thermostat is only there in case the solar system heats the tank too much (not bloody likely in Newcastle!)?
