Hi all.
I wonder can anyone help me? My central heating system is gravity fed hot water with pumped heating.
I would like to change this to fully pumped but have a slight problem.
The boiler is a Potterton Neteheat and has two "flows" and two "returns". The way it is plumbed in at the moment one flow/return is used for the gravity fed hot water and the other flow/return is used for the pumped heating.
The easiest way for me to change this is for me to blank off one flow/return using the other for pumped hot water/heating with the help of a three way valve.
My question is this: is it ok on this type of boiler to blank off one flow/return?
I assume that within the bioler there is one area where the water is heated and it is then split with two inlets and two outlets. If this is the case I would think it should be ok, but I am hoping someone can confirm this for me.
Thanks in advance.
