Why Unvented Cylinder Expansion Vessels Need Regular Attention

Think of your expansion vessel as a crucial pressure buffer in your unvented hot water system. As water heats, it expands. The expansion vessel provides a space for this extra volume, preventing pressure build-up that could damage your cylinder or pipework. Over time, the vessel's internal components, particularly the diaphragm or bladder, can degrade. This means it won't function correctly, leading to pressure fluctuations and potential system failure. Periodic checks are vital to keep things running smoothly and avoid expensive repairs later.
