Understanding Vented vs Unvented Hot Water Systems
Choosing the right hot water system for your Basingstoke property depends on your water pressure, property type, and hot water demands. Our experts help you understand the differences and select the most suitable system for your needs.
How It Works
Vented Hot Water Systems
Traditional systems with a cold water storage tank in the loft. Ideal for properties with low mains water pressure or multiple bathrooms requiring simultaneous hot water supply.
Unvented Hot Water Systems
Modern systems connected directly to mains water supply. Perfect for properties with good water pressure, providing excellent flow rates and eliminating the need for loft storage tanks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about vented and unvented hot water systems in Basingstoke
Vented systems use a cold water storage tank in the loft and operate at low pressure, while unvented systems connect directly to the mains water supply and operate at mains pressure. Unvented systems provide better flow rates and don't require loft space, but need good mains pressure to work effectively. Our engineers can assess your Basingstoke property to recommend the best option.
Hot water cylinder installations typically don't require planning permission but must comply with Building Regulations. Unvented systems require Building Control notification and annual servicing by certified engineers. We handle all certification and compliance requirements for installations in Basingstoke.
Most hot water cylinder installations take 1-2 days depending on system complexity and any necessary pipework modifications. We provide detailed timelines during quotation and aim to minimise disruption to your Basingstoke home.
Cylinder size depends on your household size, number of bathrooms, and hot water usage patterns. A typical 3-4 bedroom Basingstoke property usually requires a 180-250 litre cylinder. Our engineers calculate exact requirements based on your specific needs.
Unvented hot water systems require annual servicing by certified engineers to maintain safety and warranty compliance. Vented systems benefit from periodic checks every 2-3 years. We provide ongoing maintenance services for all systems installed in Basingstoke.
