Hi,
Just to supply a little bit more info - probably doesn't make any difference.... The top coil is from a solid fuel stove back boiler. We have a good supply of solid fuel so the stove/back boiler will be active quite a bit (also supplies space heating into a largish space) so I was wondering if the fact there is a plentiful supply of hot water from back boiler would mean that the lower part of tank would also heat up eventually (ie. in a reasonable period of time, eg. hour or two) ?
Thanks
