Hello,
I have laid out a central heating two pipe system in my two bed flat. The 22mm pipe comes out from the boiler around the flat and back to the return connection. From this loop I have tee'd off for each radiator in turn, connecting to flow and retrun.
All seems fine, but my question is should the loop pass through a rad at the end as this image shows below? (image is not my exact layout - but taken from the internet.)
Mine forms a complete loop, so that even if all the rads are shut the water can still flow. If so it is not difficult for me to break the loop if needed, but I'd rather not bother if it will make little difference. I wasn't sure if this would effect the flow patterns around the system.
Any help would be appreciated.
Simon
