[QUOTE="Wilpickard, post: 311152, member: 19866"] I know exactly how a hot water cylinder works and also know they shouldn't get air in. But as the waters flowing though it, leaving the cylinder at the top and being filled at the bottom, the currents in the water will be swirling around, bubbles at be created which will rise to the top, when the element is heated its relying on the water to cool to down and regulate it, once that water is missing, no cooling, so the temp at the element would shoot up? It's only a theory, so mr special location I don't see why you felt the need to pull my post apart? I see you've come up with a solution to the problem with another stat, I assume a cylinder stat? (What's the current rating of them by the way?) but you've not suggested any reasoning why its happening? Feel free to message me. Or email. Screen name at aol dot com Will [/QUOTE]
