What is a thermal store ?
The Gledhill Thermal Store is the
heart and brain of your central
heating system. It stores hot water
at a constant temperature and
incorporates a highly efficient plate
heat exchanger which heats the
hot water for all your domestic
needs. The Thermal Store is superbly
insulated and so the hot water
stored has a very low heat loss.
It also incorporates an intelligent
sensor which determines when the
temperature drops below a pre-set
level required for optimum efficiency.
When that temperature drop is
detected, the Thermal Store instructs
your domestic boiler to fire,
generating the additional hot water
n e e d e d to to p u p t h e s to re
temperature. When the required
temperature is reached, the boiler
stops firing, until the next time it is
required.
The system operates most efficiently
if the boiler is always left on,
with the boiler thermostat always
at its maximum setting - even
in summer.
This is because the
intelligent electronics within the
Thermal Store control the system
temperature automatically, based
on demand. Your system should,
generally, be left ‘on’ at all times. If
you are away for a short period, the
room thermostat can be set to a low
level just to prevent frost damage to
your domestic pipework systems.
