@eleusis it can do it but not in 4 hours, you will need to heat slab for potentially days to get it hot enough for the return temp to rise so then the...

@ngillam yes but only need to do one at a time unless you live in a mansion with different wings 90 seconds is a long time
@ak2024 the thermistor for the tank temp is low down in the cylinder so as soon as you draw hot water the temp drops rapidly but in reality you have p...
