[QUOTE="Richard-the-Ninth, post: 556645, member: 23472"] My understanding is no. (How will it know what the temperature of the cylinder is) In the UK if you have "an airing cupboard" you should have either an S plan system or a Y plan system. As I understand it one will have a Y (electric) valve and the other will have 2 single (electric) open or closed valves With the Y valve hot water comes in at the bottom and goes left, right or both. (For arguments sake, left is heating, right is for hot water) With 2 single valves, it is one for heating, one for hot water. The boiler will always heat water until it is told not to, be that by an external stat or its own internal stat. I may be in error, so I suggest you search for S plan and Y plan heating system [/QUOTE]
