Would my combi boiler heat water if I drained heating system?
I have a Vaillant Turbo Max Combi Boiler and a sealed heating system. I want to add a radiator and renew a couple of others which are not very efficient any more. For this I need to drain the heating system to work on the plumbing of additional radiator and exchange of others. But in the meantime I need the combi to continue to supply hot water. Will my boiler continue to work?
Noni.
yes, if you first shut off the central heating flow and return valves under the boiler first, but make sure the boiler cant run in heating mode. ie turn roomstat down and turn timer off etc.
