I assumed that the red ball float was for a header tank on the central heating side and the blue ball float was on a cold water storage tank. I thought the reason for this was only to help identify the tank but after finding a lot of cold water storage tanks with a red float, I must be wrong? Can somebody enlighten me? Thanks
 
Doesn’t matter just a ball / float old ones we’re normally red but depends on supplier you can get either
