If the Megaflo cylinder is not heating the water, the issue could be caused by a faulty immersion heater, thermostat, or heating element.
Unvented cylinder storage heaters warm up through a thermostat. The temperature of the thermostat can be increased so it will heat the water more.
The root cause of this issue can usually be identified easily. If you have a small storage capacity, for example, 100 litres, and the hot water runs out quickly, this is likely due to the amount of water used during a shower. We can measure the water temperature after the cylinder has been heating for a while to verify that it is working correctly.
This is usually linked to the main cold pressure. We can verify this by turning on a cold tap..
Yes, according to Heatrae Sadia, Megaflo storage cylinders require a yearly service. Our qualified G3 engineers can inspect the storage cylinder and ensure it is operating efficiently.
Megaflo cylinders do not have a built-in immersion timer. Safe Plumbers can install an immersion timer that lets you schedule the Megaflo to turn on during the night tariff, which may help reduce your electricity bills.
The recommended temperature is generally around 60°C. Note: This can change depending on the model. The maximum temperature may be up to 70°C.
We recommend wrapping the hot-water pipes with foam pipe lagging.
No, unvented storage cylinders utilise the incoming cold-water mains pressure, so they do not normally require a shower pump like vented storage cylinders. This makes them a more reliable and cost-efficient system.
