Hi all, wonder if there's a tradesman on here who has experience of open fires with back boilers. Just moved into A 1980's semi in a rural area, which has a traditional open fire. It obviously has a back boiler as there is a damper. There's a box-in at the side of the chimney breast. Two 22mm copper pipes then appear in the airing cupboard. These pips are connected to the hot water cylinder indirect coil. Problem is this, as far as I can see, it appears to be a sealed system. No expansion pipe into the loft tank, no top-up feed nothing. Just a back boiler, two pipes and a coil. Does anyone have any ideas? Oil filed? Any help or advice greatly appreciated.
Bit more background, that might be helpful. The house has no 'wet' heating system. Just electric radiators. Only plumbing in the house is a bog standard gravity fed system.
