Gledhill Stainless Lite Plus Direct 180 Slim

The Stainless Lite Plus Direct 180 Slim is a direct unvented hot water cylinder from the Gledhill Stainless Lite Plus range. It stores domestic hot water and, as a direct model, is intended to be heated by an immersion heater rather than a boiler-fed coil. The Slim designation refers to the reduced-footprint cylinder body, which is designed for installations where space around the unit is limited.

• Water collecting at the base of the cylinder or staining on the shell, indicating a failed cylinder body
• Discharge from the tundish or the pressure/temperature relief arrangement operating without a fault elsewhere in the system
• Hot water running noticeably cooler or exhausting sooner than the cylinder's nominal capacity should allow
• Repeated loss of system pressure on the unvented side
• Immersion heater failing to heat the stored water despite the element and thermostat being sound

• Confirm whether the installation is direct or indirect before selecting a cylinder
• Check the available floor and ceiling height, plus the route into the property, against a slim cylinder's dimensions
• Verify the model already fitted so capacity and connections match the existing installation
• Confirm the discharge pipework and unvented controls can be reconnected to the new cylinder position
