I have noticed water sitting on top of the cylinder, appears to be coming up through the insulation and out where the draw off pipe is. We have checked and the draw off but doesn’t appear to be the issue! Any ideas?

I‘ve noticed that very occasionally I get a slow drip through the tundish and out through the overflow, only when the hot water is running. It drips about once every 10 mins or so and the water feels cold. It doesn’t drip every time the hot water is running but as I said above occasionally...

Hi I have a Telford tempest unvented cylinder and I'm finding that when the hot water is on and I turn it off on the programmer the TPRV opens and let's the hot water out. Only stops running when it cools down again. What I find strange is that it only happens if I turn the programmer off. If...

Hi all, My first post so please forgive me if I get some of the terminology wrong! We recently had a 240 litre Telford horizontal direct unvented cylinder installed. It has a single 3kw immersion (it came with two immersions, but we only had sufficient electrical power to the place it was...

Anybody have anything good to say about them? Client wants to use one as he says "someone recommended them". Spec looks ok with lifetime warranty but a few on trust pilot say they don't honour it so who really knows...

When the immersion heater is on I get some backing up in the cylinder - the hot water pushes up to the cold section of the tank. Is this a normal thing, as in the hot water will expand and rise or do I have a problem? I did adjust the ball valve so there is less cold in the top section giving...

Does any one know how reputable/reliable are Joule and Telford when it comes to their unvented vertical hot water cylinders? We require a 250l vertical cylinder for our basement and our plumber is used to installing Telford Tempest cylinders but read online that Joule may be a better alternative?

When we put in the 150lts Horizontal Tempest Cylinder in 2013 no one mentioned anything about destrat pumps and I have yet to meet anyone who has fitted one. The temp gradient from the bottom to top of the tank is about 10 degrees and the rubbish stat that Telford supplied is grossly...

Apologies if this has been covered before but I searched on "Telford" and saw nothing. This relates to events 12 months ago when we had a problem but I never resolved it to my satisfaction so I thought I'd run it past the brains trust: We have a horizontal Telford Tempest 150ltr being driven...

Well, instead of letting me source the cylinder, the customer decided to go out and purchase a Telford Tempest solar cylinder. I've never fitted a Telford cylinder before (and never will again) On commencing installation, I found that the coil was obstructing the immersion heater when I tried to...

gents, this is probably worth a punt. Does anybody know of a thermal store cylinder(150 litre) that has nt got the sprayed on insulation on show i.e the customer wants to look at a shiny white case. The only one I know of is the mega bucks elson aquanox. I would nt entertain a pullsar coil...

Hi all, Looking to replace my system boiler ( a Vaillant 622 ecomax). it is controlled by external honeywell valves and programmer. Wondering if I should go with Vaillant again or try ATAG? I can see that ATAG have mixed opinion about parts availability and being less common so installers may...

evening all, I am hoping to get some advise on an issue I have with my shower in a house I have recently bought. After moving in this house I soon discovered that I had a major issue with the shower fitted, the system utilises a mixer tap with mains pressure cold and gravity fed hot water...

Hi Guys, anyone come across one of these before? pics to come! Although it produces hot water very nicely the customer is complaining about a whistling noise coming from the top of the cylinder after it has been on for a couple of hours. I noted that the auto fill light was not blinking as it...
