- Commissioning, pressure testing, temperature settings and a written handover including manufacturer instructions and commissioning certificate.
— FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
An unvented cylinder stores hot water at mains pressure, so taps and showers get strong flow without a header tank. Vented systems rely on a cold water cistern and deliver lower pressure; unvented cylinders need safety devices and a competent installer for correct commissioning.
