Tank & Hot Water Cylinder FAQs
Straightforward answers for homeowners dealing with hot water cylinder faults, unvented cylinder servicing, expansion vessel issues and tank repairs.
How often should an unvented cylinder be serviced?
Most unvented cylinders should be serviced every 12 months to check safety valves, expansion vessels, pressure controls and general operation.
Why is my hot water pressure poor?
Poor pressure can be caused by blocked strainers, faulty valves, pressure reducing issues, expansion vessel faults or wider plumbing problems.
Can you repair a leaking cylinder?
Leaks from valves, pipework and fittings can often be repaired. If the cylinder body has failed, replacement may be required.
What does an expansion vessel do?
It absorbs expansion as water heats. When it fails, pressure can rise, valves may discharge and the system may become unreliable.
Why is water coming from the discharge pipe?
This can indicate a failed expansion vessel, pressure relief valve, temperature valve or pressure control issue. It should be checked promptly.
Do you install replacement cylinders?
Yes. We can advise on suitable replacement hot water cylinders if your existing cylinder is leaking, undersized or beyond economical repair.
