I recently had the pleasure of dealing with Senior Heating Services and I was extremely impressed with their level of service. From the initial phone call to the office staff, through to the technician who came out and fixed my heater, everyone was professional and friendly. The work was carried out quickly and with no fuss, and my system is now working perfectly. I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone who needs their services or installation. They are definitely the experts in this field! Thank you so much for your amazing service.

Dale and his team installed a new Viessmann system boiler in November but today a red warning triangle appeared and stopped the heating and hot water. I couldn’t figure it out from the manual so text Dale who immediately came back with probably a drop in pressure and he came out at 7.30pm on Friday night to fix it and yes it had been a drop in pressure. Great service as always and would highly recommend.Many thanks Dale.

Vented Cylinders

Vented Hot water cylinders work alongside a cold water storage tank typically situated in the roof. Water from the mains goes into the cold water tank then fed into the hot water cylinder to be heated and distributed to your taps. Vented cylinders have a vent pipe rising from the cylinder itself and into the cold water tank. The purpose of the vent pipe is to release excess pressure and heat in the event of a fault.

Benefits of a vented Cylinders

Unvented Cylinders

On the other end, Unvented Hot water cylinders are fed cold water directly from the mains which is heated and distributed to your taps. Since the tanks are sealed, they either have a bubble top unit or are integrated with an expansion vessel to hold the pressurized water inside the tank.

Benefits of unvented cylinders

Installation Process

Our process begins with a call to arrange a visit to your property. This helps our heating engineers run a proper assessment and even help you identify the best hot water cylinder for your property and boiler. Once we have sourced the cylinder, the installation process begins and it will depend on the project. If you are looking for a replacement, then the process is more straightforward. If the project involves replacing instead of installing a combi boiler with a system or regular boiler, then this might be more complex but either way we will work efficiently on the boiler and the hot water cylinder.

FAQs

Can I install a hot water cylinder myself?

Legally, only a Gas Safe Registered Heating Engineer can install, service or repair a hot water cylinder.

What size tank do I need?

The size of your tank ultimately depends on the size of your house or property. The number of bathrooms is a big factor to consider.

How do I know my cylinders litres?

Most cylinders have an original sticker that indicates the capacity, height and diameter of your cylinder.

Begin fitting the new pump

Complete detachment of the old pump and fitting of the new pump can begin. The new pump can be Grundfos UPS3 Domestic pump or a UP15 – 10BUC5 Bronze Circulator Pump. These pumps are good for radiant heating and solar.

How long does it take to convert a Vented Cylinder to Unvented and vice versa?

Unless something comes up, at the very most a conversion takes 5 hours to complete.

Your heating engineer can offer to carry it and dispose of it safely.
