How to Chose the Right Electric Cylinder for Your Home
When selecting a new electric cylinder for your home, there are a few factors you need to take into account to ensure that you select one that is going to be able to provide enough hot water.
Things you need to consider:
Your Hot Water Needs.
This is the most crucial thing to consider – how much hot water does your household require? A larger family is going to need a lot more hot water than a 1 or 2 person household, and this needs to be taken into account if you want to ensure that no one is going to be taking cold showers.
The Size of the Cylinder
How big of a cylinder can you fit in the space you want to install it? If you select a cylinder that is bigger than the space you have for it, you will need to relocate it which will significantly complicate the installation and add to the cost. Also consider than a cylinder bigger than necessary will use more energy to heat up, adding to your electricity bill.
Budget
Your budget is also going to play a big part in which cylinder you can actually afford, and which is worthwhile to pay for. You need to consider how much you can spend and which cylinder options are available in that price range to select the one that best suits your needs.
Mains Vs Low Pressure - Which Is Better?
Typically speaking, mains pressure hot water cylinders are a better, more modern choice. However, there are certain instances where it is appropriate to replace a low pressure hot water cylinder rather than upgrade to mains.
Mains Pressure Hot Water Cylinders
Advantages:
- Better flow: Mains pressure systems can deliver water at a much higher pressure, which means a better flow rate. This is especially noticeable in showers and when multiple taps are being used simultaneously.
- Suitable for modern fixtures: Modern tapware and appliances often require mains pressure to operate correctly, so if you’re renovating or building a new house, mains pressure may be necessary.
- Hot water recovery: These systems often heat water quicker, which means hot water is replaced faster after use.
Disadvantages:
- Cost: Mains pressure systems are often more expensive to purchase and install than low pressure systems.
- Potential for more water wastage: The high pressure can lead to more water use and potential wastage, especially if taps or showers are left running.
Low Pressure Hot Water Cylinders
Advantages:
- Cost-effective: These systems are usually less expensive to buy and install than mains pressure systems. They are also typically cheaper to maintain and repair.
- Less water wastage: Due to the lower pressure, less water is likely to be used when the taps are turned on, reducing wastage.
Disadvantages:
- Poor flow rate: The lower pressure means that the flow rate from taps and showers can be less satisfying, particularly if multiple outlets are being used at once.
- Incompatibility with modern fixtures: Many modern tapware and appliances require mains pressure to function correctly, so a low pressure system might not be suitable in these cases.
Typically, if you can afford to upgrade to a mains pressure cylinder, it is a good idea to do so.
