Hi all, new around here so first a brief intro. Keen diy man with plenty of mech and pipe experience..
We have a good solar hot water system and I'm thinking about using this hot water to supply a couple of radiators. My thinking is that during the day the hot water cylinder should be fully stocked with hot water ready for use early morning when the house cools. We don't really need it during the day as we have ceiling heat transfer.
So my question really is, would running a radiator for a few hours cool the cylinder down too much? I'll be in trouble if the wife's shower is cold in the morning....
Figuring out the actual plumbing side of things can come once I get the idea in may work.
Love to hear your thoughts.
Cheers Dave
