Hot Water Cylinder Repairs FAQs
How do I know if my cylinder is unvented?
Unvented cylinders are usually mains-pressure vessels with safety controls and discharge pipework. We can confirm from photographs or inspection.
Who can repair an unvented cylinder?
Safety-related work must be completed by a suitably qualified engineer with the required unvented hot water competence.
What should I do if the discharge pipe is running?
Do not cap or block it. Turn off the heat source if safe and contact our helpdesk for prompt assessment.
Can an immersion heater be replaced?
Yes, where appropriate, with electrical work completed by a suitably qualified professional.
When is cylinder replacement better than repair?
Replacement may be advised where the vessel is leaking, badly corroded, unsuitable or uneconomical to repair.
