Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008114051A2] A modified thermal store (10) is adapted to supply domestic hot water from a first compartment (14) and water for one or more space heating circuits (58) from a second compartment (15). The first compartment (14) has a first primary water inlet (22) for receiving heated primary water from a main heat source (51), and an inner chamber (17) forming a reservoir for domestic hot water. The inner chamber (17) is enclosed within the first compartment (14) and has a mains water inlet (19) for receiving cold mains water and a hot water outlet (21) for discharging domestic hot water. The second compartment (15) forms a reservoir for water for the space heating circuits (58), and has a second primary water inlet (25) for receiving heated primary water from the main heat source (51), and a heating circuit outlet (26) for directing said heated primary water to the space heating circuits (58). A return flow channel (28) interconnects the first and second compartments (14, 15), and has a return inlet (29) for receiving cooled primary water returning from the heating circuits (58), and a return outlet (31) for returning said cooled primary water to the main heat source (51).
