Bet they couldn’t get a bigger tank through the hatch.

I took the hard route and removed every one bar the HW tank feed and overflow.Sorry to say but thats a mess. depending what no 5 feeds just drain enough out to work on it.
Personally i would look at changing that lot altogether and properly supporting it.
I am having to stretch and breath in to get through the hole into the area so it took some doing emptying them all and disconnecting them until I got to the back one which is the leaking one. They still have to be squeezed through the hatch to get them out as I have about a 1cm of silt/sand on the bottom of them all, so will clean them out of the loft space.Bet they couldn’t get a bigger tank through the hatch.
limited to size as a truss would have to be physically cut and the actual roof is to dangerous to touch, even to do this as I am not re-roofing this time of year, but come the better weather I will sort this out properly as I need right now to simply put this all back together and make a better plan of attack and repair.Make a bigger hole in the ceiling and fit the correct size tank mate if it’s possible to do and tank 5 should either be feeding heating The 4 bolted together will do the hot water. Please forgive any errors as not read all above
