Some common issues we encounter include water dripping from overflow pipes, which often points to faulty pressure valves or expansion vessels.
If you’re experiencing poor hot water pressure or fluctuating temperatures, it might be due to a problematic cold water combination valve.

Frequently Asked Questions About Unvented Hot Water Cylinder Servicing in Kent
We understand you’ve got questions about unvented cylinder servicing, and we’re here to clear things up.
From understanding whether a service will fix existing problems (it won’t), to knowing if Megaflo is an unvented cylinder (it is), to learning about our G3 qualification requirements, we’ve got the answers you need.
If you’re looking to save time, we can service your boiler and cylinder together, just check our pricing page for details.
Will a service fix any problems with my unvented cylinder?
Many customers ask whether a routine service will resolve existing problems with their unvented cylinder, but it’s important to understand that a service isn’t designed to fix faults.
When we perform unvented cylinder troubleshooting, we’re looking at two distinct scenarios. A service is a scheduled maintenance check where we guarantee everything’s working correctly and safely.
Think of it like your car’s annual service – it helps prevent future problems but won’t fix your flat tyre!
If you’re experiencing issues like no hot water, strange noises, or leaks, you’ll need to book a repair visit instead.
Our maintenance tips include getting your cylinder serviced annually to catch potential problems early, but if something’s already wrong, let’s know and we’ll book you in for a proper repair visit.
If my unvented cylinder develops a fault after a service, do I need to pay for another visit?
While it’s understandable to feel frustrated when a fault develops after a service, you’ll need to pay for another visit if your unvented cylinder breaks down afterwards.
Think of a service like your car’s MOT – it’s an essential maintenance check that guarantees everything’s working correctly at that moment, but it can’t prevent future issues from developing.
When we service your cylinder, we’re checking its current condition and safety features, not performing fault diagnosis or repairs. Just as you wouldn’t expect a car service to prevent all future breakdowns, a cylinder service doesn’t guarantee against future problems.
We know this might seem disappointing, but regular servicing remains important for catching potential issues early and extending your cylinder’s lifespan.
It’s all about preventing bigger problems down the line.
For your safety and peace of mind, always ensure your servicing is done by Gas Safe registered engineers who are legally qualified to work on gas appliances.
Is a Megaflo an unvented hot water cylinder?
Speaking of hot water systems, let’s clear up a common source of confusion. Yes, a Megaflo is indeed an unvented hot water cylinder – it’s actually one of the most popular brands in the UK!
We often hear this question from our Kent homeowners, and we’re always happy to explain.
Think of Megaflo as the “Mercedes-Benz” of unvented cylinders. It comes with all the unvented benefits you’d expect: high water pressure, quick recovery times, and efficient hot water delivery to multiple bathrooms simultaneously.
While Megaflo features include their signature stainless steel construction and advanced insulation technology, it’s worth noting that there are other excellent brands available too.
We’re experienced with servicing and repairing all types of unvented cylinders, including Megaflo and many other manufacturers.
Do you need special qualifications to work on unvented cylinders?
Absolutely, you do need special qualifications to work on unvented cylinders – and it’s an important point that not many homeowners know about.
At Thames Boilers, we’re fully qualified with the essential G3 certification, which is required by law to work on these systems.
Here’s something interesting: even though your heating engineer might be Gas Safe registered, they aren’t automatically qualified to work on unvented cylinders.
The G3 qualification is a separate certification that specifically covers unvented cylinder regulations and safety protocols. It’s like having a specialised driver’s licence – just because you can drive a car doesn’t mean you’re qualified to drive a truck!
We take these regulations seriously because your safety is our top priority, and we want to guarantee your hot water system is in expert hands.
Can you service my boiler at the same time?
Having the proper qualifications is just the start – we’ve designed our services to be as convenient as possible for our customers.
When it comes to maximising service efficiency, we recognise that coordinating multiple maintenance appointments can be a hassle. That’s why we offer our customers the option to schedule their boiler maintenance and unvented cylinder service together.
Many of our customers love this combined service approach because it saves them time and money. Instead of arranging two separate visits, we’ll take care of both systems in one go.
If you’re interested, just head over to our pricing page to check out our rates for combined servicing. We’ve made it simple to keep your home’s heating systems running smoothly without disrupting your busy schedule.
