What is a Hot Water Cylinder?
Hot water cylinders are available as either vented or unvented. The former type of cylinder is gravity-led and relies on a cold-water tank to fill it with water. This water is then heated through an immersion heater before being distributed to the utilities in your home. Unvented models, on the other hand, are fed water from the mains pressure and distribute hot water directly. The water in these cylinders is then heated either via the central heating system or through solar technology.
Having a hot water cylinder is very beneficial for homes with a large number of people, or smaller properties with not a lot of space. Here are some of the main advantages of investing in this useful piece of modern equipment:
- Creates the opportunity for an airing cupboard
- A versatile appliance
- Easy to store
- Is able to cope with a high demand for hot water
As hot water cylinders are used on a daily basis in many homes, it’s inevitable that they will encounter issues over time. A broken coil, which is one of the most common faults, will result in the murky brown water from your central heating system mixing with the water in your cylinder. Such water is unhygienic to use, so it is vital that you have repairs carried out as soon as possible. Without dealing with the problem immediately, the damage is likely to worsen.
Our Hot Water Cylinder Installations
If your hot water cylinder is encountering issues frequently, it may be time to invest in a more up to date model. Older cylinders, in particular, are more prone to damage and should be replaced. If you’re considering such an investment, the first step is to contact our team at No1 PHD in Winchester. Our plumbing and heating engineers will consult with you thoroughly prior to the installation to help you decide what type of cylinder would be best for your home.

After noticing that the house was unusually cold, we found that the heating wasn’t coming on and that our hot water had also failed. We called the team at No 1 PHD who dispatched an engineer to investigate. After discovering that the culprit was a faulty boiler part, they ordered in a new part and got it fitted as quickly as possible. The guys were great, and we couldn’t be happier.

For days, we’ve noticed a foul smell coming from outside and a gurgling sound coming from one of the drains. Whenever it would rain, the area around it would flood slightly and take ages to drain. We tried buying drain unblockers, but none seemed effective. Eventually, we turned to No 1 PHD and were left wondering why we didn’t do this sooner.
