FAQs – Hot Water Systems in Glasgow
What is an unvented hot water cylinder? An unvented cylinder connects directly to your mains water supply. This means you get high-pressure hot water at every tap and shower without the need for a noisy pump or a tank in the loft.
Why is my hot water cylinder making a humming or knocking noise? This is often caused by high pressure, an expanding internal air gap, or a faulty valve. It should be inspected immediately to prevent damage to your pipework.
How often should a hot water cylinder be serviced? If you have an unvented system, it must be serviced annually by a qualified engineer to check the safety valves and expansion vessel. This is often a requirement for your home insurance.
