How flow max works

Double Pump System

The typical installation uses a combination unit sited in the airing cupboard. System design is simple and incorporates 2 pumps, a cylinder stat, programmer and room stat, along with pump over-run.

The full output of the boiler is transferred into the hot store and directly controlled by the cylinder stat, it reduces boiler cycling.

The heating pump, controlled by the programmer and room stat provides instant response to the demand from the radiators.

There is no warming up period.

Cold feed to the unit is 22mm from the stop tap. In common with any other hot water cylinder, a device to prevent the build up of scale should be fitted in areas where the hardness exceeds 200mg/litre.

Hot water draw off pipe is 22mm to the bath branching off in 15mm to other terminal fittings. Overflow/warning pipe should be 3/4" diameter and discharges in the same way as a warning pipe in a traditional system.
