24/7 Emergency Plumbing & HeatingBurst pipe, no heating or a gas concern? We offer a round-the-clock emergency call-out across the North West.
Hot water cylinders are the heart of many heating systems — particularly in older North West properties that have never had a combi boiler fitted, and in larger homes where a combi wouldn't meet demand. EP 24/7 installs, replaces, and repairs both vented and unvented cylinders across the region. Contact us for a free quote.
Vented cylinders
The traditional copper cylinder fed by a cold-water tank in the loft. Common in older properties throughout Merseyside and the wider North West. We repair, replace, and where necessary upgrade these systems.
Unvented cylinders
Unvented cylinders connect directly to the mains water supply and deliver hot water at mains pressure — ideal for properties where shower pressure is poor. They must be installed and maintained by a suitably qualified engineer and require annual servicing.
When to replace a cylinder
Signs that a cylinder may need replacing include persistent lukewarm water, visible corrosion or rust-coloured water, an ageing cylinder that requires constant attention, or a switch from a gravity-fed to a mains-pressure system.
