About this service
Vented Cylinder Replacement in South West London, done properly the first time
Plenty of Kingston upon Thames homes still run a traditional vented cylinder fed from a loft tank. When one starts leaking or the coil fails, replacement is straightforward and considerably cheaper than converting the whole system.
We fit modern foam-lagged cylinders with far better standing heat loss than the old copper ones, and take the opportunity to fit a proper cylinder thermostat and zone valve if the controls are outdated.
If it is the right moment to consider moving to unvented or to a combi, we will lay out the options and costs honestly rather than assuming.
