Folks,
Help pls. We\\\'ve just moved into a house with the above boiler system and it is taking some getting used to cf conventional boiler system.
We have a bath with the usual bath taps which are interconnected with a shower system (hose, shower head and mixing system) for showering in the bath tub. The problem we are facing:
We cannot get the boiler to supply hot water when we turn the shower system ON. Hot water only comes up when the hot water tap for the bath is ON (takes a few seconds) - and when this happens, we divert it to the shower system by turning it off with the shower system remaining opened.
Even then, after doing this, the water goes cold after 2-3mins when we have to repeat the process again ie turn the hot bath tap On to allow water to flow back through it when it takes a few more secs (approx 15s) before hot water is back in business.
This trick has worked so far but is a pain - it leaves you cold in between spells of hot water with you playing with the taps.
Any comments/advice much appreciated.
