Horizontal solar cylinder
Can anyone recommend a decent twin coil horizontal unvented cylinder, suitable for solar and a gas boiler?
It needs to go in the loft space and therefore needs to be a horizontal cylinder.
Have seen some Thermsaver cylinders online and they look ok - anyone have experience of these?

Re: Horizontal solar cylinder
RM Solar made one for a customer of mine last month. I think it was a custom build - it certainly wasn't cheap.
Haven't had any feedback, but could ask if you like? No experience of the the Thermsaver - sorry.

Re: Horizontal solar cylinder
Thanks for that Ray. I'll have a look at those online; I think most of them are custom made - I believe the Thermsaver ones are.
