If you have a heating system which uses a cold water storage tank (usually in the attic) and if the water supply is cut off but your cold water storage tank is full, it’s still safe to run your central heating. You should not use your hot water.Click to see full answer. Regarding this, can you have heating on without water?For users with combi boilers (normally operated without the need for a hot water storage unit) the central heating system should continue to operate as normal, however the hot water system, which is normally fed directly from the mains water supply, will not operate until the water supply is restored.Additionally, does central heating use water? The basic idea of central heating is really simple: you have a boiler (an easily controllable furnace, fueled by gas) in a handy place like your kitchen or bathroom and it uses water, moved by an electrically powered pump, to carry heat into radiators in all the other rooms. can you put central heating on if water is turned off? Its perfectly fine to turn off your mains stoptap whilst running the heating. You could if you so wish, turn off mains open taps upstairs and down to drain off pipes.Can I turn off the water and leave the heating on?Yes, turning off water and leaving heating on are both good ideas. When you turn off the water, open all the taps to dain down as much of the pipework as possible.
