Dan,
Just visited my local plumbing merchant who had an ACV on demo/display.....on the face of it, seems to look good. Is it true what they say about the better performance i.e. heats up faster etc. How much more would this cost than say one of the other makes of a similar 250 litre size?
In one of your earlier posts to me about 3-4 months ago we were talking about these systems. It didn't occur to me at that time (wasn't explained) that mega flows work on the principle that water from the boiler heats the water inside the mega flow. Nor did I realise that mains pressure is what pumps the water around the house, I thought the storage tank system pumped it electrically and also though the system filled up with hot water directly from the boiler. How is it that this is more efficient compared to the old style cylinders that took a direct feed from the boiler?
