hot water tempreture
 
Our hot water is not very hot. We have a gravity system which has been in place for a couple of years. There is a programme clock which switches both water and heating. This works. The heating works fine. The water is hand hot, I have two thermostatic valves that switch on the Hot pipe and Central heating. I turned up the thermostat that just sits on the outside of the ho****er tank. Nothing changed. So I replaced this thermostat. Nothing changed.
Any ideas welcome.......
Thanks

What's with all this ho****er stuff then? That's the second one turned
up today from a diybanter user. Is it deliberate and meant to be funny,
or do diybanter just have an overzealous smut detector?

I think it's the over-zealous software.
It should accept the words if written separately as 'hot water'.
Sticking them together as 'ho****er' is liable to get asterixed.

The latter - I wonder if it objects to hot water or only ho****er.

I think its filters have not mastered the finer points of the use of the
space character in the English language! Bet it can't handle S****horp
either ;-)

Is this a fully pumped system (with a mid position valve or diverter
valve for example)? Or does it rely on convection for the hot water side
of things?

Please clarify this. Are these two thermostatic valves, in that they
are similar to thermostatic radiator valves? Or are they electric
thermostats which operate separate motorized (2-port most likely)
valves? Any makers' names or product numbers on them?

The stored hot water won't get any hotter than the boiler water.What
setting is the boiler thermostat on?

Very disturbing, having a spear shoved up, I would have thought.
