Hi all,
After my experience of doing maintenance on my open vented system learnt quite a lot about balancing rads, pipework, sludge etc.
One question I was wondering is the speed at which the pump pushes the water around my system. Which is better?
a) To have the pump slowly ease the hot water around and back to the boiler, with valves upstairs balanced.
b) To have the pump on high speed pushing water around with valves open.
I currently have the latter while sludge cleaner is in my system and it feels like i get more heat from my rads.
Thanks for any replies in advance!
