Gledhill Stainless ES 90L Indirect Unvented Cylinder – SESINPIN090

Please note: We can only deliver this cylinder to mainland England addresses.

The Gledhill Stainless ES 90L Indirect Unvented Cylinder stores hot water for smaller homes, flats, apartments and other properties with modest hot water needs. It has a nominal size of 90 litres and an actual capacity of around 93 litres.

This indirect cylinder uses an internal heating coil to transfer heat from a boiler to the stored water. In addition, the supplied 3kW immersion heater provides an electric backup. Therefore, the cylinder suits homes with a boiler-fed central heating system.

Gledhill makes the cylinder from strong Duplex stainless steel. This material helps protect it against rust and corrosion. Also, 40mm insulation helps keep the stored water hot and reduces heat loss.

As an unvented cylinder, this model takes its water supply directly from the mains. As a result, it can provide good water pressure at showers, baths and taps. However, the property must have suitable mains water flow and pressure.

Gledhill ES 90L Indirect Cylinder Features

Cylinder Size

Before you order, check the space available for the cylinder, valves and pipework. Also, allow enough room for future checks and servicing. Your installer should confirm all measurements against the latest Gledhill technical guide.

What Comes with the Cylinder?

These parts help your installer complete a safe and correct unvented hot water system. However, the installer may need extra controls, valves, pipework and fittings to suit the property and boiler.

Where Can You Use a 90L Indirect Unvented Cylinder?

The Gledhill ES 90L indirect cylinder may suit smaller homes, flats, apartments and annexes with modest hot water needs. Its compact size can also help when an airing cupboard or utility room has limited space.

Because this is an indirect cylinder, a boiler heats the stored water through the internal coil. Meanwhile, the 3kW immersion heater provides another way to heat the water if required.

However, every home uses hot water differently. The correct cylinder size will depend on the number of people, bathrooms, showers, baths and taps in the property. Therefore, always ask a qualified installer to check the required cylinder size before you buy.

Why Choose a Gledhill Stainless ES Cylinder?

Gledhill is a well-known UK hot water cylinder maker. Its Stainless ES range offers a good mix of value, strength and simple operation.

First, the Duplex stainless steel body gives the cylinder strong protection against corrosion. Next, the 40mm insulation helps keep the stored water hot. Finally, the unvented design can provide better hot water pressure than a basic gravity-fed system.

The Gledhill ES 90L cylinder also comes with key safety parts. As a result, your installer can source the main cylinder and its main controls in one package.
