Dear all, open to any suggestions to overcome this problem.
Scenario is hot water cylinder (gravity fed) only warms up when heating pump goes off.
Boiler has 4 pipes (2 at top 22mm flow CH and 28mm flow DHW) and 2 returns at bottom. Had a problem with circulation this winter so changed pump to Grunfos 15-60. Circulation issues cured (pump running on speed 1) but now when boiler comes on the DHW flow is working in reverse as if the pumped return is pumping back up what should be the return from HW cylinder. When heating satisfied eventually the hot water cylinder starts to warm with heating returning to what should be the flow to the cylinder (top pipe).
Could I fit a check valve on the return from cylinder?
Hope I have explained this enough for some advice.
