Per the title, how does the megaflow unit get it's fill of hw from a combi.
And how is the water in the megaflow re-heated?
reason I ask is that (pub talk) a builder plumber suggested I junk my existing Y-plan conventional boiler, dump the power shower pumps x 2 (two shower rooms) and go for a combi with hw storage via a megaflow giving mains pressure water.
The boiler would be in the kitchen area, so a combi could give direct hw via the combi to the kitchen (sink, washing machine and dishwasher).
The CH is obvious...
Then the upstair bathrooms (2), sinks (3) and showers would feed from the megaflow storage unit.
Since the pipe distance between boiler and bathrooms is 10m+ and I need pressure for the showers the design makes sense, but I don't really understand how a combi can supply water to a storage device (megaflow) and then keep the temperature of the stored water decent enough to us.
Sorry if I'm being a 'thicky'
