I have been searching for info on combi boiler operation during warmer months without much luck. During colder, winter months, when the boiler will ideally be operating more regularly for long enough durations to take advantage of its efficiency I can see how providing hot water in addition would also make efficient sense.
But in warmer months when the boiler would otherwise be idle with no space heating loads, wouldn't short durations to supply hot water almost mimic short cycle operation that undesirably derails efficiency and puts unnecessary wear and tear on the unit
I am sure I have likely overlooked something obvious in my search for info, but if not, is there a better way, more efficient and cost effective, to provide hydronic space heating during winter months in addition to supplying hot water all year long?
