I wonder if anyone can help me with a question about the Vaillant Turbomax VUW 242E 282E boiler's ability to heat water and run the central heating.
The boiler is in a one bedroom flat and when the central heating is on and the bath is run, the water is at best lukewarm.
When water in the bathroom basin, or kitchen sink is run it seems to be a lot warmer than in the bath.
Am I right in thinking that the water flow rate to the bath is higher than to the basin, or sink? Is this perhaps why the boiler can't cope with that and the central heating at the same time?
Does anyone know if the boiler would prioritise hot water over central heating, or vice-versa?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
