Turning off hot water!

[thegravy]

Hi

I'd like to change my bathrooms taps, and I can turn off my cold water but not my hot!

I'm in a flat and have a Ariston Unvented Hot Water Cylinder, in a cupboard just outside the bathroom with a maze of pipework and not sure what is what!

I've attached a few pics and my guess would be to turn the blue valve on the right but not sure if this is cold water coming in, not hot going out as it is blue!

any help would be gratefully received

if it's an unvented system turning off the cold going in will stop the hot coming out.

cool, sounds too easy, I was expecting to have to drain the cylinder etc.

thanks again Owain

All you need to do is turn off the blue valve to the right of the black device in the 2nd piccie.
