My hot water system works OK, as far as the Radiators are concerned.
But the hot water isn't staying hot the whole time I have it programmed for, most of the time.
It seems that there must be a temperature that it comes back on to reheat the water, but this must be set very low and erratic, sometimes the water may only be tepid at a time of day it should be hot, and the next hot as it should be at that very same time of day.

I had thought it had something to do with the historesis on the hot water system but where can I change that ???

Would you like to read the topic at the top of this forum ? Then tell something about your water system other than it gets cold if it isn't working.

Niggled.
 
From what little you have told us it would appear that the cylinder stat has a too wide hysterisis gap.

You should measure the on/off temperatures with a digital thermometer.

But that diagnosis is based on VERY little information from you!
