Un-Vented Newbee

[T&Earth]

Hi Guys

Held un-vented ticket for over 5 years, and never touched one, just done my re-test sat the full day! rather than 1/2 day refresher. I will be hopefully installing one for a mate soon so, any tips would be most welcome and suggestions of best brands would be helpful.

To put your mind at rest that I'm not a DIYer I have a C&G level 3 plumbing, NVQ 2 Domestic plumber Water Regs and registered with NAPIT (Competent Person Scheme) and will reg with BC.

May Thanks

Steve

I fit the cheap ones as they are expensive enough as it is.

Make sure there is enough pressure and flow to the property to supply the cylinder adequately

Don't use braded hoses to exp as it looks awful. Don't forget lagging

I am biased as a stockist and sponsor, but have a look at RM Stelflow.

Although your user name looks suspiciously sparky-esque to me.

If you like the Santon, have a look at the Main unvented.

Made in the same factory, by the same workers, from the same materials...

...but sold at a lower price.

I like the stelflow by rm cylinders. Decent enough stuff and the price is right, keeping the job profitable for me

Was going to be my post ray. Main solar are hell of a lot cheaper too.

Hi Ray

Well spotted, I am a full scope electricain as well, but only about 10% of my work is electrical eg electric showers, heating controls, spar baths etc.

Thanks for replying

Been using Joule cylinders for a while with no problems.

Oso hot water cylinders are good as they come basically pre-plumbed the composition valve with pressure reducer etc is fitted on to the top of the cylinder. Also the pressure relief and temperature relief are tee'd together and connected to a tun-dish.

Got to fit one on wednesday

Have a decent look at survey time, pressure and flow is the first consideration to see if it's suitable, then you are looking at location, re suitability of the weight in preferred location, then you need to look at D2 run, as you have just done the course again all the D2 requirements will be fresh in your mind

[Dotty]

You may burn him if he weighs the same as a duck..........

 

[Riley]
