Flow and return fro different places?

[dextrous]

Now look, it's quite simple. If you connect the magic box onto the pipe and the wires onto the correct coloured tinsel and say abracadabra, then all will work.

Don't know why you're trying to make it sound so hard - guess you're just one of those "I'm a professional , don't touch it you amateur" types

Oh i love thes forums!

My question has been answered - can you take a return feed into the system at any point, or does it need to be at the same place as the flow?

The one person who's answered it is Dextrous - and the answer was yes.

Thanks Dextrous.

If anyone else disagrees, please let me know.

Thanks

We all Disagree.

The flow and return can only connect in one place.

To date you haven't made it clear what you have done or where.

Information is required.

In retrospect, I'm not entirely sure that I agree with my initial claim
However, I agree that more info is required.

I always connect a flow and a return to two different places!

I find it works better that way!

Contadictions gentemen.

Dextrous you say "With regard to your query about the return pipe, then no problem with leaving this where it is."

but then doitall says "The flow and return can only connect in one place. "

I shall get a drawing detailing what I have, which I know will be correct, not a one pipe system, not have reverse flow or any other anomolies, as I installed it all, and up to date has been working fine for four years.

 

[griggs]

You don't say what type of system you have installed. The fact that you have M/V's would suggest that you have a water cylinder? If so, the return from the cylinder must be the last tee on the return to prevent reverse circulation.

The new rad that you installed with a M/V on the flow, have you checked that this valve is remaining open when the existing valves are closing?

A diagram of the system layout would be helpful.

 

[twgas]

which I know will be correct

that's confidence for you.
If it's correct it WILL work.

 

[1974stephen]

twgas - i know the drawing will be correct - but how can a correct drawing mean the system will work? Surley the idea is that I wil show you all my correct drawing, and then you can comment on what might be wrong or what can be improved or done differently.

For those wishing to help me rather than pick fault etc, I will post it as soon as I've got one knocked up and worked how how to get it on the forum.

 

[twgas]

Ah! so, am I right in thinking, your drawing will be correct in as much as it will exatly represent your heating pipework layout.
I'm sorry if I misunderstood your previous statement but unless you are absolutely precise you will get people using their own interpretations of what is said (and the xmas booze doesn't help everyone)

If you post an as fitted drawing we/me can tell you what is wrong, and how to rectify the problem.

Hell you can even email it if you can't post it.

I've got the layout here chaps:
