Has anyone heard of the following before, or is it dangerous?
My mate bought a house a month ago, it is approx. 25-30 years old. He has no cenral heating,just convetor heaters spread around it. It is only a small 1 bedroom.
He has in his wardobe, a HW cylinder, with the top cut of (it is a standard size, pre-lagged with a sacrifiial anode label attached) - the rising main is going into it, a warning pipe going out of it and out through the wall nearby. He has 2 immersion heaters, he said one goes on at a set time, but there is no time clock with it, just 2 switches on the wall next to them! One is switched on, so I believe is constantly running. The rising main tess off from the cylinder and runs through the wall to an electrishower in his bathroom.
Is this weird-he has no vent pipe and no tank in the loft!! I have never known anything like this before and wondered if anyone had!!??
