I have an existing oil central heating system but....?

Question

have decided to add in a Rayburn cooker/boiler. What's the easiest way to do it and what happens when I have a power failure.....how do I circulate with water in the rayburn without a pump? Thanks guys, I look forward to your replies.

Answer 1

If you have a power failure the hot water should rise to the top of your system naturally. You would need to keep an eye on the boiler & if it gets too hot run off some of the hot water to help cool it down. Your existing pump should circulate the water but you may need to get a thermostat thingy on the pipe that runs from you rayburn to let the pump know to circulate it.
