    I just purchased a new house with a firebird-s 50-90 boiler installed.

    It has a switch labeled C Pump. I presume meaning circulation pump. Am I right in thinking with this switched on it will also heat the hot water for the taps but with it off will just do the rads?

    Thank you for your time

    I doubt it. You need the circulation pump to heat the downstairs rads. The pump is usually connected directly to the heating system
    Perhaps this is for something else

    Yeah please delete this if you want. Was not aware of the p and h forum when I posted. Going to take advice of that forum and get it serviced and find out then anyway.

    Thanks
