About this deal

Definitely recommed the seller and of course the [[ASIN:B01BGZQVY6 ARB18 Expansion Vessel (Baxi Megaflow system) ]] if you are looking for one.

This seems to be a simple job of emptying the cyclinder below the line in the picture and islolating the feeds. If water is required by the system, it starts flowing out of the tank without using the pump but just using the pressure in the air cushion. Yep - standard reply for unvented - happy to pay a G3 plumber - want to be sure they don't fit the same kit and don't get overcharged.The main purpose of an expansion vessel is to compensate for the increase in volume of water due to the varying water temperatures in hot water or heating systems. Initially I thought the image on the product listing has like an oem - non label and non branded product. I would appreciate a second opinion as to whether this would be a suitable replacement for a sealed system. Not just the static pressure but probably letting all the air out ( which can also contain water on the air side!

An unvented cylinder is expected to be checked/serviced every year and that would usually include checking the EXV.The existing [[ASIN:B01BGZQVY6 ARB18 Expansion Vessel (Baxi Megaflow system) ]] was installed in 2003 and the registered engineer said the reason I have to keep topping up the system on a daily basis was due to the expansion vessel. Reliance Valves Aquasystem Replacement Vessel Membranes are available from 2 to 5000 litre capacity, which allows the vessel to be serviced in situ and prevents any water contact with the steel shell to prevent internal corrosion. When it arrived it had all the labels as on the already fitted [[ASIN:B01BGZQVY6 ARB18 Expansion Vessel (Baxi Megaflow system) ]]. Due to the pressure from the pressurised air surrounding the membrane, water will start to exit the vessel until the membrane is deflated. The expansion vessel allows for this extra space, as when water temperature increases the membrane inside the vessel inflates to allow the water to fill the vessel.
