Hello, I'm new to the forum and after a bit of advice, hope some one can help please.
As the title suggests I've come across an issue with an auto by pass valve fitted on what appears to be an old heat leak rad. The rad is obviously being used as the by pass.
The pipe work for the heat leak rad t's off the boiler flow after the pump and before the zone valves, all ok, then there's an auto bypass valve, after this the pipe goes into the floor. It looks like it feeds two rads then resurfaces behind the cylinder and connects to the hot water return after the coil.
Should this work ok, or will the the hot water 2 port have to be open?
I'd be really grateful if some one can share their knowledge. Cheers.
