A water cylinder is at the heart of the operation of every boiler, delivering essential heating and a steady hot water supply for your home.
Advice from BHE’s expert engineers on choosing your new water cylinder in Wigan, Leigh, Lancaster & Morecambe
But unless you have replaced a central heating system – in most cases likely to be a once in a generation job – you probably haven’t considered replacing or upgrading your water cylinder, that large vessel that does such an important job.
So as one of Wigan, Leigh, Lancaster and Morecambe’s most highly-rated and respected installers of unvented and vented water cylinders, boilers and central heating systems, and a Which? Trusted Trader, in this article BHE’s expert boiler and water cylinder installation engineers give you an idea of what your water cylinder does, the main types of water cylinder on the market, and the differences between them.
Then, when you need to start looking for the best new vented or unvented water cylinder or central heating system for your property, needs and budget, you won’t be caught cold.
The water cylinder either takes water directly from your property’s mains water supply, or stores it separately – usually in a tank in your loft or other space on the upper floor - then controls how it is delivered to your taps and the other appliances that need it.
Whether you choose vented or unvented cylinders, if they are properly fitted and well maintained, both types will work well under normal water pressure conditions.
Your home and water heating experts at BHE will be able to advise you on the right choice between vented and unvented cylinders, based on your type of property and water supply set-up, and your family’s specific needs.
Whereas the water supply from a vented water cylinder can sometimes suffer from low pressure, especially in older houses, the water supplied via an unvented cylinder doesn’t have as far to travel, which means your supply is more likely to stay at a consistent pressure, no matter how far the tap (or shower) is from the water tank. An unvented water cylinder is therefore a good choice if you do otherwise suffer from low, or inconsistent, water pressure levels.
A vented water cylinder works best alongside an older heating system. As they don’t take their water supply from the mains, vented water cylinders are ideal for a property that is either not connected to this supply, or which suffers from intermittent supply difficulties. A vented water cylinder will also work well if you get some of your power from solar panels.
