[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 378414, member: 6969"] There is a make of hot water heater that modulates it's power to provide a constant regulated output temperature. I'll look it up later and post a link. So it can take anything from cold water to already hot water and just heat it as much as it needs to give the set output temperature. I am planning to use one on my new house, so we can store the hot water at a relatively low temperature (for better efficiency from the heat pump) and use one of these in line water heaters just to provide piping hot water to the kitchen sink even if the water in the tank is not very hot. P.S it might just be easier to fix / replace the unreliable boiler? EDIT Here's the heater I am thinking of. It's only a link to one on amazon, I don't have time to search for the manufacturers data just now [URL="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Stiebel-Eltron-10-Electronic-Instantaneous/dp/B00DSKJ3AM"]http://www.amazon.co.uk/Stiebel-Eltron-10-Electronic-Instantaneous/dp/B00DSKJ3AM[/URL] [/QUOTE]
