Hello - I've had a new Gloworm Ultracom 2 SXi, Megaflo and Siemens controller fitted. All seems well with heat and water.

I live in a 3 bedroom house with two bathrooms. It has two Heatrae Sadia Megaflo CL145 cylinders.
There are only two of us living here, and we only ever use one bathroom at a time, so I think the system may be over-specced for us, and we're paying to heat more hot water than we need. I'd like...

I've had a megaflo for many years without problems. Serviced (fairly) regularly.
It has suddenly stopped producing hot water. The pressure is good but the water is cold. I've noticed the outlet pipe feels warm and you get a couple of seconds of warm water then it goes cold. Leave it for a...
