Cylinders and Thermal Stores
Unvented Cylinders and Thermal Stores
Unvented cylinder heating systems must be installed and serviced by a competent and qualified G3 qualified engineer; this is a legal requirement in the UK and all installations must be certified and registered with the local authority.
As with boilers, we service and repair unvented cylinder and thermal stores which most people know as Gledhill boilermates.
As a general rule, most systems like this do not need replacing unless they’re leaking from the cylinder itself. Anything else is usually fixable
Thermal Stores cannot be serviced but we can carry out a functionality, health check and certificate them and well and general repairs There are risks replacing some components on the older models but we can talk you through it. A faulty system does not necessarily mean a replacement.
