Zilmet Expansion Vessels

Zilmet Expansion Vessels are tanks that are used in plumbing and heating systems to manage excess pressure and water volume. They are usually installed in boiler systems, water heaters and other types of closed heating setups. These expansion vessels contain a flexible rubber membrane that separates water from a pocket of compressed air.

The main benefit of a Zilmet Expansion Vessel is that they help to prevent any damage to pipes and fittings by absorbing excess pressure. As water heats up, it expands and if you don't have an expansion vessel, it could lead to burst pipes or leaks. The vessel gives the expanding water somewhere to go which keeps the system pressure stable. Another advantage of installing a Zilmet Expansion Vessel is that they can extend the life of your heating system. By reducing any stress on the components, they help prevent wear and tear and this means fewer repairs and replacements in the long run.

Zilmet Expansion Vessels also help to maintain a steady water flow and a regulated temperature in your heating and hot water system. This can then lead to more efficient heating and can potentially lower energy bills. They are also fairly low-maintenance as they only need occasional checks to ensure the air pressure is correct. Furthermore, these vessels are compact in size, and they can be fitted in many different locations, which makes them a flexible solution for many different types of heating systems.
