I am about to convert my standard open vented DHW system with indirect
tank to a HeatBank system following the wiki @

http://wiki.diyfaq.org.uk/index.php?title=DIY_Heat_Bank - many thanks
to John Stumbles for that.

While trying to figure out what specification I require for the plate
heat exchanger, I happened upon this article, which suggests hot water
should be *distributed* as well as stored at 60degC.

No, with a heat bank all the hot is heated from a fresh supply of potable
water (unless you live in Gloucester). What is left in the hot pipe
afterwards is no different from any domestic hot water system.
