Thanks Dave, i will check after chrimbo , need to drain system to do it , gert does not want me to meddle with it till then , i am going to add a plinth heater to system while i am at it will let you kmow what i find , by the way it does have a flexi hose to the vessel but the rear connection is at the back of the boiler, looks a bit of an arse to get at!!!
