Is Your Unvented Cylinder Safe? Pressure and Temperature Valve Testing in Newcastle Upon Tyne

An unvented hot water cylinder gives you mains pressure hot water – a fantastic convenience. But it's crucial that it's working safely. The Pressure Temperature Relief Valve (PTRV) is a vital safety device, and regular testing is essential. Preferred Gas offers comprehensive PTRV testing for unvented cylinders throughout Newcastle Upon Tyne and the surrounding NE postcode areas. We'll make sure yours is functioning correctly, giving you peace of mind.

Why Your Unvented Cylinder's PTRV Needs Regular Attention

Think of the PTRV as a safety valve. It's designed to release pressure and temperature if they exceed safe limits within your unvented cylinder. If it fails, the cylinder could become a significant hazard. Regular testing ensures it will operate as intended, protecting your property and, most importantly, your family. Don't neglect this important safety feature.

Avoid Hot Water Disasters: The Consequences of Neglecting PTRV Testing

A malfunctioning PTRV can lead to over-pressurisation of the cylinder. This can cause leaks, damage to your plumbing system, and in extreme cases, even cylinder rupture. Regular testing is a small investment compared to the potential cost and disruption of a serious failure. It also keeps you compliant with building regulations.
