Expansion Vessel Checks and Replacements: Keeping Your Unvented Cylinder Safe and Efficient
The expansion vessel is a critical component of your unvented cylinder system. It accommodates the expansion of water as it heats, preventing over-pressure. A faulty expansion vessel can lead to pressure relief valve discharge and potential damage to your system. We can check your expansion vessel to ensure it's working correctly and replace it if necessary, adhering to G3 regulations.

Just like your car, your unvented cylinder needs regular servicing to keep it running smoothly and safely.

This is also a requirement under G3 building regulations. Avoid costly repairs down the line by scheduling your annual service with Preferred Gas today.
