I recently replaced a indirect cylinder that had split. The old cylinder had a 28mm coil with 35mm pipe running to it via gravity.
When I replaced the cylinder I reduced the 35mm pipe back approx 1/2 a metre from the cylinder into 28mm (including 2 elbows in the flow and 2 in the return).
Over a period of a month the customer has had no HW on 2 occasions. When I've got there the HW circuit had already begun circulating heating up the water.
I'm hoping someone can help sort out the problem. I've made sure there's no air in the circuit. I'm wondering if its because I've reduced down the pipes earlier than the previous cylinder (never had this problem before the change).
Cheers for any help.
