Water at high Pressure
The water to the taps and showers
in your home is delivered at high
pressure because it uses the mains
pressure of your cold water supply.
The BoilerMate 2000 is connected
to the mains system and the water
passes through a highly efficient heat
exchanger to raise its temperature
before it travels to your taps and
showers.
Because it is so efficient, both
high flow rates and high pressures
are available to give the best
performance for both baths and
showers.
Water cisterns are required for
the traditional domestic hot water
system, and are generally located
in the loft, to give a better ‘head’ of
water. In most cases, the higher the
cistern, the greater the pressure.
Because the Gledhill system uses the
pressure from your cold water mains,
these cisterns are not required, which
removes any worries about freezing
or contamination of the cold water
system from insects, dust, birds etc
and leaves more space for storage
should you decide to use it.
Depending on the height of your
airing cupboard it occasionally may
be necessary to position the small
expansion tank within the loft space
e.g. in bungalows.
Why are there no Water cisterns
in the loft ?
