We're getting an attic conversion done and the guy who's doing it wants to move the tank in the hotpress up to the attic. Can anyone tell me whether moving this up to the attic would cause problems with the tank and/or the central heating system?
If it is the immersion tank you would have to make very sure that it was insulated properly.
The other point to consider is inspecting it on a regular basis to make sure that there is leakage.
I know that when we changed to a combination boiler, for which you don't need any tanks in the attic, I was horrified to see the state of the tanks that were removed - I could have poked my finger through one of them.
