Tankless Heat Question

in THE MAIN WALL
My radiators get hot even when the heat is turned way down. I have a tankless heater system, and suspect when the hot water is demanded, some is leaking past the check valve and warming the radiators. Does this explain why I would have a warm house, when the heat setting is below 60 degrees, and it is 45 degrees outside?

    You are about to get "educated". Hang on to your hat and pay attention, the information you will surely get could save your life.

    It is a tankless system, they are not mixed, they just share the same boiler heat source.

    okay

    I jumped to a conclusion. Sorry.

    Sounds like you have "ghost flow". Probably improper piping. Can you post a picture ? Or a detailed description ? (Pics may still be needed)
