Hi All
I have a 200 litre water cylinder which I heats up the water using my gas boiler.
This was already in my house when I moved in it 3 years ago.
Until recently I have had the timer on from 6am- 9pm every day with temp of around 60 degrees. As I have had my new boiler installed and nest thermostat I wanted to experiment with setting times for the water. It appears the water starts getting cold after 3-4 hours of very light usage, it doesn’t seem to retain the heat.
1. Could there be an issue with the tank? Does it need servicing? / replacing anode rod?
2. Is it cheaper to have it timed or like previous all all during the day/evening?
Thanks in advance
