Gledhill

Blackpool-based Gledhill Cylinders were founded in 1926 as a family business and have since grown to be one of the UK's largest cylinder makers, manufacturing high-quality vented and unvented water heaters in stainless steel and copper. Gledhill cylinders are made from high-quality materials, ensuring that they are durable and long-lasting. They are also designed to be energy-efficient, which means that you can save money on your energy bills while keeping your carbon footprint down to a minimum.

Installers and tradespeople also appreciate Gledhill products for their ease of installation and the good aftercare service the company offers. Despite almost a century of experience behind them, Gledhill has no intention of looking backwards; their commitment to renewable energy products means that they are likely to be at the forefront of hot water solutions in the home or business for the foreseeable future.

Here at Heating and Plumbing World, we stock a range of Gledhill unvented cylinders in a variety of sizes up to 210 litres, which covers the needs of most properties with multiple bathrooms, en-suite showers, and utility rooms. Slimline models are also available when space is at a premium. An unvented cylinder is one that stores hot water and provides it directly to the shower, taps, or any other hot water outlet. Unvented tanks are fully sealed and draw the water directly from your exterior mains water supply giving you much more consistent water pressure. This does away with the need for a tank in the loft and all the problems that come with it, such as frozen pipes and water contamination, in addition to freeing up loft space.

Unvented cylinders can be situated anywhere inside a property, making them a much more flexible and practical solution. A vented cylinder is the traditional type of cylinder. Once common in British homes, they work on gravity and take no pressure directly from the mains which means that the water pressure is likely to be lower in upstairs rooms compared to downstairs rooms. The type of cylinder used will very much depend on the property and the system it needs to work within. We have a range of Gledhill open-vented cylinders with varying capacities and some come with 10-year guarantees.
