Volumisers

Voluminers Expansion Vessels for Cylinders are high-capacity vessels designed to manage water expansion in sealed heating and unvented hot water systems. They protect boilers, cylinders, valves, and pipework by safely absorbing pressure fluctuations, ensuring reliable and efficient operation of domestic and commercial heating installations.

About Voluminers Expansion Vessels

Voluminers are large-capacity expansion vessels featuring a flexible diaphragm or bladder that separates system water from pre-charged air or nitrogen. When water heats and expands, the diaphragm flexes to absorb extra volume, preventing over-pressurisation. Their robust design and high volume make them ideal for systems with high water capacity or multiple cylinders.
