EcoDan owners: check your DHW cylinder

Posts: 199 Forumite
I have a system with Ecodans, recently I was advised to check the size of the coil in the DHW cylinder supplied with the system as a package.
To say the least I was miffed to find the surface area of the coil was 0.75 sq/m when in the manual for the EcoDan it states the coil size for my 14kw units should be 3.0 sq/m. Remember, this is the cylinder supplied by the installation company as correct for the units, yet another example of their incompetence.
So, I would strongly suggest anyone with an EcoDan pull out the paperwork and carefully go through the specs of their DHW cylinder, if the coil is too small it's going to take much longer to heat the DHW and therefore it's costing you more money to do so....
Time for another email to the muppets methinks
