D.I.Y, PlumbingMore Hot Water
Archie, the back boiler supplies heat to your hot water cylinder, normally found in the airing cupboard. On the cylinder is a thermostat which may need to have the temperature setting increased, Just turn it up a few degrees by hand, and this will increase the temp of the water that is stored in the cylinder. The cylinder will then supply more water for your bath.
