Ah, ok you have an indirect cylinder with heat input form the boiler as
well. In which case is there a cylinder stat strapped on to the cylinder
somewhere? You might want to check the boiler is getting the tank hot
enough.

Would the boiler have a temperature reading? Im at work, so cant
check... also, should hot water be always maintained at or above 65
deg? Is that even doable?
