Discuss oil boiler cycling in the Boilers area at Plumbers Forums
Is there a by-pass fitted?

Thanks Best, it is a red headed valve ,it is in the hw tank area.
One connection to it goes up into the loft, one connection seems to connect to the top of the hw cylinder and the ( a smaller pipe) goes to the hot water tap in the bathroom sink???
I may be wrong but that's what it looks like.
I've done some more tests and with the valve open the boiler gets up to temp then cycles often at about 70 degrees according to the boilerstat.
When I fully close it the boiler tank temp hits 95 degrees but does not short cycle.
Any ideas??
Cheers
Craig
If I turn the valve shut the boiler tank temp gets up to 90 degrees
