Just using hot water from a combi?

MachOne · 16 May 2006

I have a question, can you shut off the central heating flow and return and just use the boiler for hot water. I have a Glow-Worm 24 CI, with isolating taps on both the flow and return.

Is this possable/practical........SAFE!

in a word no
it needs somewhere to loose the exess heat after you draw the water
to stop the boiler overheating

i seem to remember 4m of 22 min

Thanks for the very quick reply! Will have to think of another way round my problem. I wanted to replace my radiators and run the 22mm pipes another way under the floorboards.
