Bypass valve position
What's this about having to fit a bypass valve to comply with building regs?
Can't I just leave one rad without TRVs or isn't that the same? Regardless I thought I would fit it at the 'manifold' end which is fed by a pair of 28mm pipes but is some way remote from the boiler. Is this a suitable position, or would it be better closer to the boiler itself? |

You are not allowed to fit a normal bypass valve. But IF your system requires a bypass it must be an automatic bypass valve. If you have a rad without a TRV and can guarantee you won't turn it off then you should be fine. That said, saying leaving just one rad sounds like you only have one heating zone which doesn't meet the building regs except in small flats. You need at least two and each would need a rad without a TRV. |

If you have a rad without a TRV and can guarantee you won't turn it off then you should be fine. It's not just no TRV, it mustn't have any hand-operated valve. This would normally be in the room with the thermostat, as the roomstat then provides the heating control. That said, saying leaving just one rad sounds like you only have one heating zone which doesn't meet the building regs except in small flats. You need at least two This just isn't true. I've looked round a number of new houses recently for a friend (3 and 4 bedroom), and I've never seen one with more than one heating zone. Zoning the heating is something really rather restricted to committed DIYers. and each would need a rad without a TRV.

Ah, yes, I read about the multi-zoning as well but I forgot about that.
As a committed diy-er all my previous systems were multi-zone but as the first almost all TRV system I thought why bother. It's easy to incorporate fortunately. I think the property will count as big. So - provided my system design and controls ensure a water path at all times that the boiler is firing, which I would have done anyway without really thinking it was anything special, I don't need a bypass, automatic or otherwise? |

threshold or what reg it's in (part L, I'd guess) As I understand it, separately timed zones are suggested for floor areas exceeding 150m2. However, temperature control for separate living and sleeping areas is always required (usually using TRVs or subzoning) unless the flat is open plan and such control would be pointless. Christian. |

You're really quite barking. Christian. |

Yes, it began to sound a bit convoluted to me as well.
I've got my eye on the Grundfoss Alpha already, along with a Panda heat bank and a condensing oil boiler (open to suggestions) - there's no gas here. I've mentally returned the automatic by-pass valve for credit/adjustment for motorised valves. Call me old fashioned, I understand the four-tapping arrangement with dedicated feed and vent pipe best, with 2-port valves for control. I prefer to fit my own pump. But the bit I don't understand is the pump over-run. I know what it does, but there's no provision for that with the standard S-plan, is there? I've always wired the boiler and pump in parallel. I guess for boilers that need it there must be a special wiring arrangement from the boiler ? "Christian McArdle" wrote in message t...

From the building regs part L : "1.39 In most dwellings one timing zone divided into two temperature control sub-zones would be appropriate. However in single-storey open-plan flats and bed-sitters, for example, sub-zoning of temperature control could be inappropriate. Reasonable provision in the case of large dwellings of more than 150m2 floor area, would be for no zone to have an area exceeding 150m2 and the operation of the heating to be separately timed in each zone." Mind you most new houses are so small they probably don't count as large dwellings so you're probably right. |

Or an electronic sensing pump such as the Grundfos Alpha I don't see how that helps! It's the *boiler* which needs the flow to keep going after it stops firing in order to carry the residual heat away and prevent the over-heat cutout from tripping. No amount of electronic sensing can maintain the flow if there ain't anywhere for it to go! -- Cheers, Set Square ______ Please reply to newsgroup. Reply address is invalid. |

When a boiler needs pump over-run, you *don't* wire them in parallel. The rooms stats and zone valve simply control the boiler, and the boiler controls the pump. The boiler has dedicated terminals for pump connection. The boiler also needs a permanent live as well as a switched live - so that it can run the pump when required even when it isn't firing. [A bit like an electric radiator fan on a car, which continues to run for a bit after you switch the engine off]. -- Cheers, Set Square ______ Please reply to newsgroup. Reply address is invalid. |

These raise the return temperature reducing efficiency. Try Grundfoss Alpha pumps. Of course, many condensing boilers have internal pumps, so this advice can't be followed. If they have internal pumps, wouldn't they also have internal bypass if needed ? Well, Keston doesn't, and I don't recall it on others I considered at the time. An internal bypass would have difficulty meeting the requirements for minimum pipe run length before the bypass, which several boilers have (needs to be enough volume of water to absorb the heat produced before the burner shuts off and cools). I designed my system to use a mid position valve between the two heating zones (and a radiator in each zone is the bypass with no TRV or hand control), so there is no shut-off position and always a water flow path. Some (not Keston) have an extra electrical output for connecting to an additional pump, which might be useful for detecting pump run-on. Another related issue... Many boilers have frost detection built in, and can fire up by themselves when there's no call for heat, and again will need a flow path. Also, some boilers will run the pump for a short time if it hasn't been used for 24 hours to stop the rotor from sticking. -- Andrew Gabriel |

This can happen when there is no call for heat on pump overrun. It could also potentially happen if the installer has stuck a TRV on the rad in the room with the stat - then there is the possibility that you will still have demand for heat with all TRVs closed. That is a problem with the installation though, and not a basic incompatibility between bypass valve and boiler technology. -- Cheers, John. /================================================== ===============\ | Internode Ltd - http://www.internode.co.uk | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | John Rumm - john(at)internode(dot)co(dot)uk | \================================================= ================/ |

All TVRs could be down and only the downstairs toilet slightly open. A call for heat. The by-pass will still open as the flow through the rad will not be enough for 90% of boilers. Many rads may be calling for heat and the by-pass can still be open. Then the spring wears in time, making it open even more. They are a waste of time and should be avoided. Makers put them on boilers in order to protect themselves from idiots. It is easy to design them out. _________________________________________ Usenet Zone Free Binaries Usenet Server More than 120,000 groups Unlimited download http://www.usenetzone.com to open account |
