Good evening: Do you have any links? Lots of research into heat recovery back home
in Canada

Thanks.

If you guys are still there - what are the running costs of a normal boiler (mine is fine) attached to a megaflo compared with a combi boiler without??

Hi..Could anyone explain exactly how a megaflow works please?

I'm assuming its the same as a copper vented tank in operation (central heating pipes through it & immrersion heater to heat) however fed by mains pressure rather than gravity fed tank in loft..and therefore under mains pressure in tank..(therefore I'm assuming safety/fail safe valves essential)

Anything else I should know..If I want to replace some hot taps in the bathroom and i'm guessing if I switch of the main stopcock in house this should stop water coming out of megaflow.
