Hot water cylinders

[rwidget]

Hi

Apologies in advance for the very basic post (I'm new to this!).

My current hot water cylinder needs replacing and I've been looking at replacements online - can anyone help with any recommendations for an unvented direct hot water cylinder around the 170/180ltr mark?

I've seen the following cylinders and there seems to be quite a difference in price:

Megaflo 170DD - £815 inc VAT

RM Prostel 180 - £469.99 inc VAT

Telford tempest 170 - £403.20 inc VAT

What are the benefits of going for the Megaflo when the Telford is 50% cheaper?

Thank you very much in advance.

Rob

You'll need a G3 qualified plumber to install the cylinder so I'd find someone to the job and take their advice.

as mike says this isn't a job you can undertake yourself you need to get a suitably qualified engineer. often it isn't cheaper to get equipment yourself either.
