I have a hot water cylinder/tank in a cupboard upstairs, but with storage limted and a planned loft conversion in mind. Can the hotwater tank/cylinder go downstairs on the ground floor where it woud be next to the boiler ?
yes but you have to bear in mind that if the hot taps to any appliance are higher then the cylinder then the water coming out from the tank is now working its way upwards against gravity and you will probarly need a pump fitting to boost it
Thanks for the feedback , so it seems I can move it downstairs but I would need a pump (which would in reality need to feed anything upstairs)
Any suggestions on a pump to use ?
Also if the house has 2 bathrooms my guess is that a Combi would not be the best solution for a busy . Or is that an old opinion of Combis have things changed?
