Just after some advice please, hot water installation on a very large house. The owner would like to have 2 cylinders; one to serve the two bathrooms that the owners will tend to use more often, and the 2nd to serve three bathrooms that would only be used when guests are staying over.

1.Would the best method of doing this be a separate flow and return circuit from the boiler to each cylinder with separate timer control so they can turn on the additional cylinder when needed?

2.My only concern was that because this is a very large house (600m2!) and the bathrooms are spread all over the place, there would therefore need to be a HW secondary loop on each cylinder, but I don't think there is any way around that?

3.Would it be a good idea to link the hot water from both cylinders so that additional hot water could be obtained if they need it?

The house is huge (5 bathrooms total, lots of belfast sinks etc.) so each cylinder would be at least 300 litre capacity.

Thanks
