Hi Guys, first post so be gentle.
I am by no means a plumber but i do a bit of labouring for a guy who is a plumber, now hes normally pretty good and i like to think i know quite a bit about heating systems etc, but this one has caught us both out.
Basically we are converting a system boiler with unvented cylinder in to a combi boiler system, now weve removed the tank/ old boiler etc, but there's 2 pipes that we are unsure on what to do with. The first is a pumped pipe (which has a pump on) labelled "primary flow to heat generator" and the second is "primary return to heat generator".
There is also another 2 pipes labelled "flow and return for heating" coming off the boiler is only 2 pipes (flow and return for heating i assume) we are familiar with both fully pumped and gravity systems but dont understand why there are 4 pipes in to the tank and only 2 from the boiler.
Are the 2 flows and 2 returns just linked in somewhere and therefore we just need to link them together in the tank cupboard or what?
Any advice/help will be greatfully received, thanks guys
