Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our services and process.

The right choice depends on your water pressure needs, loft or plantroom space and whether you want mains-pressure hot water. Vented cylinders suit properties with a cold tank, while unvented cylinders give higher flow and are better for multiple bathrooms. We carry out a site survey and recommend the most appropriate system.

“Have been using them for about 6 years since my last guy retired. They are good, straightforward, no nonsense & know their stuff. Good plumbers are never cheap, but I feel Abbotts charges are in the 'fair & reasonable' range, so I don't feel ripped-off as I have with others in the past.”
