The appliance always gives priority to DHW supply.

The appliance is designed to be used with a circulation pump, 
a divert valve assembly, a fl ow sensor, a DHW plate heat 
exchanger, a safety valve, and a CH expansion vessel. A separate 
DHW expansion vessel is not required.

Internal frost protection and an electronic control unit are 
incorporated within the boiler. Any volt free room thermostat
can be used with the boiler.
