Twin-coil central-heating diagram

---

I badly need a diagram for connecting/fitting a twin-coil cylinder to connect with a solid-fuel stove, boiler and radiators.

No luck in Google - can anyone help? Thanks.

you should get a drawing with the stove instructions?

And I should have had cornflakes for breakfast! Won't help me to see a diagram for connecting a twin-coil cylinder though! :smartass2:

Hope you know what you are doing, as that is a job not to be messed with. The twin coil cylinder connections are the straight forward part, with the gravity pipes having vent & feed pipes. It is the pumped pipes that are tricky if you haven't done this before.

Should have said that gravity pipes are the critical ones obviously.

have you checked your training guides from your heta's course's, maybe something in them. I would hope so as im doing mine soon and hope i get some good notes.

Look up " Link up systems"

Thanks guys - I posted the question for my next-door neighbour who's a plumber but he doesn't use the internet. I'll pass on your comments to him later tonight. I have no idea whether he's familiar with this system or not.

Tell him, he's missing out on the Plumbersforum!

I know he is but he needs a crash-course in computers first!

I would struggle to do my job without a computer, or I should rephrase that, it would take me a hell of a lot longer. No excel, no word, no internet, nightmare 🙂

So easy nowadays to get emails or look the Internet for plumbing info & pictures. He should at least do these, but maybe he is getting on a bit & thinks, wrongly, that it is hard to do.

Always easier to learn something when you have a need.

That's just it. One of the old school and he just won't make the effort (especially when he has a gophor living next door!).
