So, you disconnected the coil?

Yes, but it's still there.


It would have been better to have used the
coil for the kitchen tap. As then you will prevent the pump from cycling on
and off. If the kitchen tap is opened for a second, which is quite common,
the pump will energise for no apparent benefit. You could have took the
outlet of the coil into the plate. Around the flowswitch have a flow
regulator, which is a cheap in-line isolator. This only brings the plate in
when there are high flows.

Not a bad idea. Except that in order to get hot water in the kitchen,
you have to run the tap for at least 20 seconds. It's on the opposite
side of the house.
