How not to use a combi boiler
Had dinner at the gf's parents yesterday. Her mother turned the CH on at
the programmer and then turned down the room stat. Her reasoning for doing this. "So that there would be some hot water for the washing up but she did not want the radiators on" -- Adam |

It wasn't a combi though :-) Has gf inherited mother's looks or brains? Owain |

How not to use a combi boiler
In my view, the name is misleading, it is in effect the opposite, ie you can
have them seperately not combined. Maybe the real name should be asepi boiler? Brian -- ----- -- This newsgroup posting comes to you directly from... The Sofa of Brian Gaff...

She did not have £40 of change on her when she arrived but my brother had stashed some pound coins away just in case she wanted to swap a couple of notes........ -- Adam |

How not to use a combi boiler
ARW submitted this idea :
Had dinner at the gf's parents yesterday. Her mother turned the CH on at the programmer and then turned down the room stat. Her reasoning for doing this. "So that there would be some hot water for the washing up but she did not want the radiators on" Present partner was unaware that here she could run both hot and cold to fill a bath at the same time. |
