Types of hot water cylinder installations we do for London customers

1. Vented hot water cylinders

Vented cylinders rely on a cold water storage tank, typically located in the loft. This tank feeds water into the cylinder using gravity, making it a gravity fed system. They’re simpler in design and work well with older plumbing and heating systems. Vented systems are ideal for homes with low mains water pressure.

2. Unvented hot water cylinders

Unvented cylinders connect directly to your mains water supply, providing better hot water pressure without needing a cold water tank. These sealed hot water systems use an expansion vessel to manage pressure and are perfect for modern homes where saving space and energy efficiency are key. Unvented cylinders, like the Megaflo Eco, are commonly installed and maintained in London properties.

3. Direct hot water cylinders

A direct cylinder uses an internal immersion heater to heat the water stored within it. Suitable for homes without a boiler, these cylinders are often used in electric-only heating systems. They can be installed as either vented or unvented cylinders, making them a flexible solution for improving your home’s water pressure and hot water availability.

4. Indirect hot water cylinders

Indirect cylinders use an external heat source—usually a boiler or solar panels—to heat the water. These are highly efficient for households with existing central heating systems. Whether installed as part of a vented or unvented hot water system, indirect cylinders help reduce energy use and provide reliable hot water throughout your property.

At Happy Dog Plumbing, we emphasise the importance of annual servicing to prevent major faults and ensure all controls and safety devices are working correctly, which can contribute to the longevity of the system.

The optimal location for an unvented hot water cylinder is as close as possible to the main points of hot water usage, such as bathrooms and kitchens. Placing the cylinder near these areas reduces heat loss and ensures quicker delivery of hot water. Additionally, installing the cylinder close to the mains cold water inlet can help maintain consistent water pressure.
