I am seeking an engineer working in the Newcastle upon Tyne (and/or wider North East) area who can advise on and fit a thermal store in my home. I have been let down by an engineer and would really like to get the work done over the next two months if possible! Many thanks. Gareth
Does anybody know anything about this brand of thermal store, as they have gone bust I cannot get an installation guide. Have worked out 90% of it! just need to ask a few questions...
Thanks in advance
Hi
I need to re-route the pipe to the hot water tap on a bath, so I need to isolate the supply, however it is fed from a thermal stoarge tank which I am unfamiliar with. Do I simply turn the cold off at the mains and drain off water from a tap on the hot water system? Many thanks!
Went to the above today, it's a thermal store cylinder.
The pump ran on DHW demand, but there was a short bit of hot water, then just cold.
The plate on the front felt quite hot, the pump ran and everything was pointing at the plate being the issue.
However, I rang Gledhill technical...
Can anyone recommend a good quality Thermal Store, if there is such a thing!
I've had a look at Joule Thermal Stores, and would be interested to hear any comments or experiences with them.
I would always recommend an unvented cylinder over a Thermal Store, but when there's absolutely no where...
Hi just a quick easy question. Wall mounted meter box the gas pipe travels through the cavity via the spigot. This should be sealed. My question is whats the make of that compound iv tried laco rocol I cant for the life of me remember the name of it. Many thanks

Hi, New to the forum, experienced DIYer, looking for some advise.
I am currently exploring upgrading our back boiler unit to an Aquatherm 34KW log stove and am unsure about which type of cylinder would be best for our situation.
The cylinder now is vented and gravity fed with two coils, one for...
Does anyone make a thermal store that is designed to be used with just a boiler (no solar, heat pump etc) on a sealed heating system? can't seem to find one
Hi,
I'm a billy basic plumber and I am upgrading my house (only moved here a year ago). It is a small 1980's detached house with twin tanks in the loft open vented system. boiler on outside wall in kitchen and immersion in airing cupboard on first floor.
I'm hitting a wall with what I wanted to...
Hi,
We installed a combination, open vented thermal store last year. As the header tank sits on top of the main cylinder the water in the header is really quite hot. I have noticed very slight drips coming from the overflow (more on a cool day) which I think is down to condensation. It’s not...
I’m considering changing my cylinder ahead of a bathroom upgrade. I’d like to use the opportunity to prepare for a future alternative heat source called LENR that can almost completely cover my heating and hot water requirements (and potentially microgeneration as well). This probably isn’t...
Hi I am thinking of doing away with my cylinder and 3 bar pump and replacing it with a mains fed thermal thermal store system. My mains pressure is usually 2 bar (but can fall to 1.5) and my flow is approx 18 litres pm. I live in a 2 shower room apartment, there s usually just the two of us...
Hi all,
I am sure someone on here will have more experience of installing these than me (i.e. my no experience can't be hard to beat!).
I am about to put a quote together for installing a thermal store in a pub. Ideally the store will need to have 4 coils, one for DHW, one for a gas boiler...
I have solar thermal system with evacuated tubes which was installed three years ago. It has lost circulation and pressure. I need someone with access to a pump to flush and repressurize the system.
Bi thermal heat exchangers... I think there called that anyway... The ones in old Worcesters 24i, and combis with no plate heat exchanger & diverter valve.
I have to look at one next week. Customer says water flow poor, hot water almost boiling at taps!!
Sounds like the heat ex is scaled up...
I may have to look for a leak on a heating system losing pressure every day. No sign of a visible leak anywhere, including prv and condense in case heat exchanger is knackered. All ground floor heating pipework is in concrete flooring, has anyone hired a thermal imaging camera and had any...
