For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.As Builder says, it'll be OK for a while, but don't allow your cold water tank to empty by drawing off too much water. It's possible for an overheated empty back-boiler to transfer enough heat to hidden pipework so as to create a fire risk. There's a Northern Ireland Government website that gives advice on their present water supply problems, and it advises not using a backboiler if there's no mains water. UK HSE advice is similar.
