What Are Unvented Hot Water Cylinders?
Unvented hot water cylinders are pressurised cylinders that store and deliver hot water directly from the mains water supply, eliminating the need for a vent pipe or header tank. Because they operate under mains pressure, they provide high flow rates and strong water pressure, making them ideal for households or commercial properties with multiple bathrooms or high hot water demand.
Why Choose Unvented Hot Water Cylinders?
There are many advantages to choosing unvented hot water cylinders over traditional vented systems, including:
- Higher Water Pressure: Unlike vented cylinders that rely on gravity, unvented hot water cylinders use mains pressure, offering better flow and more powerful showers.
- Space Saving: Without the need for a loft tank or vent pipe, they require less space, making them perfect for modern homes or properties with limited room.
- Fast Hot Water Delivery: The system delivers hot water quickly to taps and showers without delay.
- Energy Efficiency: Modern unvented hot water cylinders are well insulated, reducing heat loss and lowering energy bills.
- Versatility: Compatible with various heat sources, including boilers, solar thermal panels, and heat pumps.
- Safe and Compliant: Built with multiple safety features like pressure relief valves and expansion vessels to meet UK safety standards.
