The Importance of a Tundish in Unvented Cylinder Systems

A seemingly small component, the tundish, plays a vital role in the safety of your unvented cylinder. It's a visible safety device that allows you to easily identify if the pressure relief valve is discharging water. Proper installation of the tundish and its associated discharge pipework is essential to prevent scalding and potential flooding. Our engineers meticulously check and install tundishes according to regulations.

Common Pipework Alterations We Handle

We handle a wide range of pipework alterations for unvented cylinders, including:

  • Re-routing pipework: Adapting the system to accommodate new layouts or appliance locations.
  • Upgrading pipe sizes: Ensuring adequate water flow and pressure throughout your home.
  • Installing additional safety features: Adding extra protection to your system.
  • Correcting existing pipework issues: Rectifying non-compliant or poorly installed pipework.

Preventing System Failure: The Right Materials Matter

Using the correct materials is paramount when altering unvented cylinder pipework. Inferior materials can corrode or fail under pressure, leading to leaks and potentially dangerous situations. We only use high-quality, WRAS-approved materials designed for use with unvented systems, ensuring long-lasting performance and safety.

Minimising Risk: Professional Installation is Key

While DIY might seem tempting, unvented cylinder pipework alterations are best left to the professionals. Incorrectly installed pipework can compromise the safety of your entire system. Our Gas Safe registered engineers have the knowledge, skills, and experience to carry out these alterations safely and efficiently, minimising the risk of future problems.
