Gledhill Stainless Lite Heat Pump 250 Litre Indirect Unvented Cylinder

Making the most of air source and ground source heat pump technology

Gledhill Building Products were the first manufacturer to offer a range of domestic thermal stores and unvented cylinders specifically designed to work with air source and ground source heat pumps.

Following extensive research and development, we have used decades of experience to optimise various aspects of the cylinder, most notably the heat exchanger and additional sensor pockets, to provide a solution suitable for a range of air source and ground source heat pumps.

The unit is 'solar ready' i.e. even if solar panels are not fitted as part of the original installation, the cylinder is ready for them to be connected at a later stage.

Stainless Lite HP - An unvented store providing mains pressure domestic hot water

Gledhill have produced an unvented stainless steel unit specifically for heat pump applications. Utilising the well established Gledhill Stainless Lite unvented hot water cylinder, this product has been developed to maximise the lower temperatures available from the heat pump.
The heat exchanger is a totally new design. It consists of a two pass corrugated stainless steel tube in parallel to reduce the pressure loss whilst maximising the heat exchange. Many medium to large heat pumps need heat exchangers in the store that will cope with the higher flow rates associated with primary temperatures that are typically 50°C or 60°C.
All the usual features of the Gledhill Stainless Lite are maintained together with all the necessary controls and expansion devices included. Due to the fact that many heat pumps will not raise the stored water temperature to 60°C, which is necessary to prevent the growth of legionella, the Stainless Lite HP model is supplied with an immersion heater tapping and a thermostat pocket.
It is recommended that a thermostat is fitted which brings the immersion heater ‘on’ at a temperature just below the heat pump maximum and switches off at 60°C or 65°C. In this way the use of ‘direct’ electricity is minimised and most of the water heating is achieved through the heat pump.

The key features of the Stainless Lite HP are:

• The latest and highest quality Duplex Stainless Steel.
• A 25 year guarantee.
• Fast reheat rate from its purpose designed low resistance coil.
• One of the highest insulation ratings on offer today.
• Service that is second to none.
• The Stainless Lite HP is supplied with all the necessary connections including two 10mm dry thermostat pockets.
