    I saw another post on this situation yesterday. You might do a search and as far as memory serves me, the reply was you can leave it on provided you haven't emptied out all the water in the tank in the attic. This was for gas heating but search on the forum on boards and askaboutmoney. Good luck.

    Yes you can leave the heating on. If you have no cold water at the kitchen sink then your roof tank will not be filling either, so don't waste the remaining water. It will run out shortly too. You can still use the central heating unless there is a leak which requires frequent topping up.

    i have just managed to sort out prob by pouring boiling water down mains thing outside house as another poster suggested :):):)

    however, i don't understand your answer- are you saying yes you can leave your heating on but you risk wasting the water in roof tank??:confused:
