Understanding Vented vs Unvented Hot Water Systems in Slough
Choosing the right hot water system for your Slough property depends on your water pressure, property type, and household needs. Our expert engineers help you understand the key differences to make an informed decision.
How It Works
Vented Hot Water Systems
Traditional systems with a cold water tank in the loft, ideal for older Slough properties with lower water pressure. Perfect for Victorian terraces and 1930s semi-detached homes common in Slough.
Unvented Hot Water Systems
Modern mains-pressure systems delivering powerful hot water flow to all taps and showers simultaneously. Excellent for contemporary Slough developments and renovated properties.
System Compatibility
Our engineers assess your Slough property's water pressure, boiler capacity, and space constraints to recommend the optimal hot water solution for maximum efficiency and performance.

Hot Water Problems We Solve in Slough Properties
Slough's mix of period properties, hard water, and varying water pressure creates specific hot water challenges. Our experienced engineers understand these local issues and provide targeted solutions.
How It Works
Poor Water Pressure
Many Victorian terraces in Slough Central suffer from low water pressure. We install unvented systems where mains pressure allows, or optimise vented systems for maximum performance.
Hard Water Damage
Slough's hard water causes limescale buildup in cylinders and pipes. Our maintenance service prevents costly failures and extends system life significantly.
Insufficient Hot Water
Growing families in Slough's family-friendly areas need upgraded systems. We size cylinders correctly for multiple bathrooms and high-demand households.
Space Constraints
Compact Slough properties require clever system placement. We find efficient solutions for cylinder positioning in limited spaces without compromising performance.
