My radiators get hot when I run the hot water taps even though I don't have the heating switched on ? is that right or is something wrong ?
I have a Gas Combi Boiler for my heating and hot water, approx 10 years old.
Any radiators that are left in the on position at their thermostat valve controls ( they are usually left turned up full for when I do switch the heating on), the radiators get hot when I run the hot water taps in the house without the heating being switched on as I stated, I have noticed this for a long time and thought it was normal but as summer approaches again I would rather not be cooked in the house every time I need to wash or take a bath etc, the only way I can get this to stop happening when I run hot water is to manually go around the whole house and turn all the thermostat control valves off on each radiator which as you can imagine is a total pain in the neck.
Can anyone in the know about these things please let me know what they think thanks guys ?
