tank giving me pressure on hot and cold

[Krhos123]

I have been advised to ger rid of my hot and cold tanks as only nm cold is mains and has pressure. I also could do with the extra space.

The hot has no pressure really at the moment. So this tank will give me pressurised hot and cold enabling me to have a mixer shower with loads of pressure. How much do these tanks cost and are they good. Novice in plumbing but have been given a vague quote. I need to know what I am paying for.

Thanks

I assume you are refering to an unvented hot water cylinder. All this means is there will be no need for a cold water storage cistern...you still require a hot water cylinder of course but it operates under mains pressure.

The existing water pressure and flow rates need to be checked before contemplating the changeover. The cylinders are around £600 - plus fitting by someone qualified for unvented cylinders. They are perfectly safe if installed correctly despite certain posters predicting the worst.
