The following are two main factors to take into account:

• The storage volume required to meet peak demand.Typical hot water demand (litres of water at 60ºC)

• Standard bath 60 litres• Corner bath 120 litres• Gravity Shower 30 litres• Power shower 60 litres• Wash basins 5 litres• Kitchen sink 15 litres

• How quickly can the energy source heat the water.

With gas or oil boilers, fast recovery cylinders such asSuperheat can help you to achieve quicker reheats andreduce the amount of water that needs to be stored.

When off-peak electricity (Economy 7 or 10) is used forwater heating, it is most economical to heat the totalcontents of the cylinder overnight. This reduces the needto use immersion heater boost periods during the daywhen electricity is more expensive.

Maxistore cylinders, which were designed to be used inconjunction with ‘low tariff’ electricity, are recommendedfor all electric applications.

Part L Building Regulations

Changes come into effect from October 2010,our extensive range of vented copper cylinders havebeen tested and modified to deliver low standing heatloss and keep CO2 emissions to a minimum in line withthese regulations.

The regulations have two sections; Part L coversthe conservation of fuel and power in new dwellingsand Part L1B covers the conservation of fuel andpower in existing dwellings, which will apply tothe work undertaken in existing homes and coversreplacement cylinders only (Part L1B insulationrequirements are lower than those of Part L).

As the market leader in the manufacture of hot watercylinders, we want to lead the way in ensuring our

products are as energy efficient as possibleand in line with new regulations.

NEW INSULATION LEVELS:

• Part L (new build & replacement cylinders)will have 50mm insulation.

• Part L1B (replacement only cylinders)will have 35mm insulation.

Copperform is part of KingspanHot Water Systems Ltdand manufactures a varietyof water heating products.Mainly domestic and industrialhot water cylinders in Direct,Indirect and Combinationversions.

They are all built to the highestpossible standards with a focuson being environmentally friendly.This is part of the philosophyon which the group has grown,and it forms the basis of ourmission statement for the future.

This information is a general guide forselecting the correct size of cylinderfor use in domestic applications.If you are in any doubt or have a morespecialist application such as a nursinghome, sports centre or youth hostel,please ring us.
