How It Works
Survey & Specification
A two-person site visit checks cylinder type, pipe runs, cold-water feed and venting, then we recommend vented, unvented or thermal store options and a written quote.
Supply & Professional Fit
We deliver the cylinder and all required components, isolate supplies, install the cylinder, pipework, expansion controls and insulation, and test for leaks and correct pressure.
Commissioning & Certification
System is flushed, commissioned and set to manufacturer settings; we supply compliance paperwork and advise on maintenance. Emergency follow-up available 24/7.

What we install: We fit domestic hot water cylinders and boiler tanks for traditional vented systems, modern unvented cylinders and thermal stores. Installations are tailored to the property — terraced Victorian houses in Northampton, new‑builds in Daventry and rural cottages around Kettering require different relief arrangements and pipe routing. Work includes the cylinder itself, immersion element(s) where applicable, expansion vessels, pressure relief valves, cold‑water feed and full pipework connections.
Our standards: Every installation includes correct plumbing connections, adequate thermal insulation (cylinder jacket or fitted lagging), system flushing and commissioning to manufacturer and Building Regulations requirements. Typical inclusions:
- Site survey and bespoke specification
- Supply of cylinder and ancillaries
- Fitting of expansion controls and safety valves
- Insulation and energy optimisation advice
- Certification and handover notes

Frequently Asked Questions
Most domestic cylinder installations take a day for straightforward replacements — we typically complete supply, fit and commissioning within 6–8 hours. More complex jobs (new unvented systems, relocations or additional pipework) can take 1–2 days; we confirm times on the site survey.
