Hello All
Bathroom rad warms up while shower is in use - I am lead to believe that a faulty DV is a likely problem.
Which leads me to puzzlement.
Presumably, no water is actively being pumped around the CH circuit, while the shower is on, but the CH is off?
The CH pressure is not rising or falling, so presumably, there is no net inflow / outflow of water from the HW side to the CH side?
So, how exactly is the CH water getting warmed up? And how is that warmed water getting to the rad?
Could I actually be showering in a dilute solution of what is in my rads?
