[QUOTE="Lurch, post: 445206, member: 6967"] Do the same job, I've seen rads randomly fitted in roof spaces used as heat dumps, whatever works I suppose. Just a waste though so really a last resort. The expansion vessel will just take up the expansion, it won't take any additional heat as such. If the system gets too hot it just gets hot. All of the systems I have dealt with though have been triple coil tanks so it's relatively easy to use all or some of the radiators as heat leaks. I actually started to design a more complex/standard control system for triple coil tanks so the valves and bypasses all worked and the priority did what it should. Most systems relied on standard tank stats and pipe stats so they weren't all that accurate, especially with 3 stats all working in a 20°C range with huge hysteresis meaning it was anyones guess what would happen.
