1. How do you delete how water cylinder from Netsys HWS model?
2. Does hevacomp do the sizing for the hot water cylinder? When I added cylinder into my model hevacomp didn't ask me any design input or criteria so I am not sure what the sizing would be based on.
HI Giorkem,
To answer your questions:
1. You just need to go to Fittings > HWS Cylinder > Delete HWS Cylinder. If it is not selecting the cylinder you will need to change your current pipe height to be the same as the cylinder.
2. No, the effect is instead to include the pressure and friction losses across the cylinder.
Please see section of the manuals below for further info:

Thank you Shane!
I have two more questions as below;
1. Fittings: Do I need to specify which pipework (flow or return) a fitting shall be installed? Cause I can't find that option. Is that a default setting in the software?
2. HWS Return pipework size: The return pipework needs to be two size smaller than flow pipework for hot water services. Is there a way of doing that automatically (maybe changing sizing criteria or something) rather than going around,clicking and fixing the size of each return pipe? Or is there a way of editing return pipework size as a group of items?
