THERMAL STORE cylinders work in the opposite way to a conventional system. The storage cylinder that contains the Primary water is fed by the Feed & Expansion tank and heated by either a boiler or immersion heaters. Mains pressure cold water passes through a specially designed Heat Exchanger, which draws its heat from the thermal store. This water passes through a thermostatic mixing valve where it is blended to the required temperature and supplies the hot outlets throughout the house. Additionally, when heated by a boiler, IT can use its thermal store of hot water for an almost instantaneous response when the space heating is required.
