[QUOTE="Geoff1946, post: 556649, member: 28452"] Agree you need to work out what you have. Trace the pipes. If two largish pipes go directly from the boiler to the HW cylinder then it's an old gravity system. Where is the pump ? On fully pumped systems it's often (though not always) integral to the boiler, but on gravity HW systems it will be separate, either adjacent to the boiler, or quite possibly under the floor. Are there any motorised valves ? The most basic old (gravity) systems have none. [/QUOTE]
