Hi
I've just been testing the hot water boiler on my 544 and wondered if you run it on it's own or do you need the heater running too?
Not sure of the boiler make but there's a Truma control point on the outside wall of the cupboard so assume it's a Truma. I removed the vent cover on the outside, set the temp to 40 degrees and tuned on the switch. It seemed to fire up ok and only the green LED lit (the red one lit as well before but I hadn't removed the vent cover).
The water was luke warm at best. I then moved the dial to 50 degrees and not much changed. Is the hot water pretty instant or do you need to run it for a while?
I also turned on the Trumatic S3002 heater to see if that made a difference but it didn't seem to.I assume you don't need to run the heater as well but you know what they say about assumptions. Can someone clarify this please?
Do most people run the temp control at 40/50/60 degrees?
I'm not expecting scalding hot water but something a bit better than luke warm would be nice.
Cheers!
