Unvented Hot Water Cylinder Installation in Poynton, Cheshire East

Most older houses around Park Lane or over towards Poynton Pool still rely on a cold water tank in the loft to "push" water down. This is known as a vented system, and it is usually quite sluggish because it relies entirely on gravity. An unvented cylinder, like the well-known Megaflo models, connects directly to your mains water pipe. This means your hot water comes out at the same high pressure as your cold water. Imagine having a proper "power shower" in every bathroom simultaneously without needing a noisy, rattling electric pump.

One of the best hidden perks of switching to an unvented system is what happens upstairs. Because these cylinders are fed directly from the mains, you no longer need those massive, dusty cold water storage tanks sitting in your roof space. If you are planning a loft conversion or just want a cleaner, more usable attic, we can remove those old tanks as part of the installation. It is a fantastic way to modernise your home's plumbing while making the most of every square foot of your property.

Installing an unvented cylinder is not a job for a standard handyman. These systems handle a significant amount of pressure, which is why the law—specifically Part G of the Building Regulations—requires a G3-qualified engineer to carry out the work. Our team at Redorr Heating & Cooling Services is fully certified, Gas Safe registered (967977), and carries £10m in public liability insurance. We install all the vital safety components, including expansion vessels and the tundish, ensuring your system is safe, legal, and built to last.

Nobody likes paying more than they have to on energy bills, especially with current costs. Modern unvented cylinders are incredibly well-insulated, acting like a giant thermos flask to keep your water piping hot for hours. This means your boiler or renewable system doesn't have to work nearly as hard to maintain temperatures. Whether you need an indirect cylinder connected to your central heating or a direct version using immersion heaters, we will help you choose the perfectly sized unit for your family's specific water usage.
