hi all.
As the tag line states, a conversion from open vent to unvented. Going to use a 210ltr tank moved from airing cupboard to loft.

IMO , get an ultrasteel cylinder its a Tribune with a different lid and a sticker , and a bit cheaper
 
Thanks guys!
The cylinder and ufh downstairs is the upgrade for me this summer courtesy of the wench
