Unvented cylinders have grown in popularity in the UK since they were allowed to be used in households 30 years ago. They have many advantages over the old vented cylinders. They allow you the convenience of a continuous supply of hot water in your taps, showers and baths without the problem of decreased water pressure in your rooms even in upper floors. Because they have no vents, water in the cylinder is not prone to contamination. You will not have to worry about safety. They are robustly designed and with built-in safety features. They can withstand high pressures and have excellent insulation that will keep water hot for a long time.
Unvented cylinders are more flexible compared to the traditional vented cylinders. They can be installed in almost any location within your house. They can heat the water directly or directly when needed. They can also supply hot water more efficiently than just combi boilers will provide.
Megaflow is the leading unvented cylinder brand in the UK is for its quality and reliability. It delivers actual pressures of 3 bars, which is the equivalent to the pressure of a cold water tank 30 meters high that feeds a heat-only system. It is in fact tested to withstand an operating pressure of 15 bar. It has a unique feature – an enclosed air bubble within the tank itself, which takes care of water expansion at high temperatures. It does not require a separate expansion vessel for that purpose unlike other brands of unvented cylinders. It is also complete with safety features including thermostatic control that prevents over heating of water and expansion release valves, a contingency that that allows water expansion if the cylinder performance goes wrong.
Unvented cylinders require a lot of plumbing – not just any plumbing. They are required to be installed and serviced by qualified and competent G3 certified engineers, a legal requirement in the UK. Also, all installations must also be certified and registered with the local council.
