we have a vaillant ecotec pro28.
everytime the central heating is on and you run the hot water it will scald your hands because the water out of the tap is the same temperature as the water in the radiators regardless of what temperature the hot water is set at.
For example if the water temp is set at 45 and the heating temp is set at 65 then the hot water is run is at 65 and not 45 so you scald your hands.
it only does it when heating is on, when off the hot water temp is fine.
Have now resorted to turning boiler off at switch and letting hot run until cold and then turning back on again to get normal temp hot water,bloody nuisance but it works.
Help, any solutions
