Hi all,
I have a direct cylinder which is fitted with a pump to hot and cold taps in bathroom. I need to change the off peak immersion at the bottom and have isolated water from header tank to cylinder..
but have a problem draining as I've connected a hose to the drain valve to the bottom and opened hot taps to allow gravity siphoning but the drain valve is fully open and water is very slow to drain out of the hose,
could this be due to the pump restricting the drain down. If it is then what can be done to do this quickly?
Also just to add the header tank is very large and is sitting very close to the top of the cylinder so that hot output of the cylinder is not accessible..
Any help would be great !
Thanks in advance
