Unvented Cylinders

An unvented hot water cylinder is the solution for homeowners who want mains-pressure hot water delivered consistently throughout the home – no waiting for the tank to refill, no weak showers and no cold water tank taking up space in the loft. If you’ve ever dealt with the frustration of pressure dropping in the shower when someone runs a tap elsewhere in the house, an unvented cylinder is the answer. At The Gower Heating Co., we supply and fit unvented cylinders to a high standard, with all work carried out by engineers who hold the relevant G3 qualification required by law.

Unvented cylinders operate by connecting directly to the mains cold water supply and heating water within a sealed, pressurised vessel. Because there is no cold water tank feeding the system under gravity, the hot water is delivered at mains pressure – giving you powerful, consistent hot water from every tap and shower in the home. For households with more than one bathroom, or for anyone who values a strong, reliable hot water supply, an unvented cylinder is a genuinely practical upgrade.

The Advantages of an Unvented System

The most immediately noticeable benefit of switching to an unvented cylinder is improved water pressure. Showers run more powerfully, baths fill more quickly, and multiple outlets can be used simultaneously without a significant drop in performance.

This is a genuine day-to-day improvement that many homeowners notice immediately after their new cylinder is fitted.

Beyond performance, unvented cylinders also offer a space-saving advantage. Because the system is fed from the mains rather than a gravity-fed cold water tank, there’s no need for a cistern in the loft, freeing up storage space that would otherwise be taken up by the tank and associated pipework.

The cylinders themselves are compact and can be fitted in an airing cupboard, utility room or other suitable space, and their sleek, modern design means they integrate neatly into contemporary homes.
