Why Worry About Your Unvented Cylinder's Pressure? Potential Hazards & Peace of Mind

Unvented cylinders operate at mains pressure, which is significantly higher than traditional systems. While this delivers great performance, it also means that any issues with pressure can potentially cause problems. Regular pressure checks help identify potential hazards like leaks, over-pressure situations, or a failing expansion vessel. A properly functioning system helps prevent breakdowns and costly repairs and, most importantly, safeguards your home and family. We're committed to providing you with peace of mind.

Expansion Vessel Health: A Key Component of Your Unvented System

The expansion vessel is a crucial part of your unvented cylinder system. It's designed to accommodate the expansion of water as it heats, preventing pressure build-up. If the expansion vessel fails, it can lead to excessive pressure, potentially damaging the cylinder and other components. Our diagnostics include a detailed check of the expansion vessel's pressure and condition, and we can recharge or replace it if necessary.

Spotting the Warning Signs: When to Call Us for a Pressure Diagnostic

There are a few telltale signs that your unvented cylinder might need a pressure check. If you notice any of the following, it's best to call Preferred Gas for a professional diagnosis:

  • Water leaking from the pressure relief valve.
  • Unusual noises coming from the cylinder.
  • Inconsistent hot water temperature.
  • Low hot water pressure.
  • The cylinder feels excessively hot to the touch.

G3 Compliance is Paramount: Adhering to Safety Regulations

Unvented cylinders must be installed and maintained in accordance with G3 building regulations. These regulations are in place to ensure the safety of your system. Preferred Gas engineers are fully qualified and experienced in working with unvented cylinders and understand the importance of G3 compliance. When we service your cylinder, you can be sure it meets all the necessary safety standards.
