What it is
The Vaillant 181079 is a 10 litre expansion vessel used in Vaillant VUI 362-7 and Aquaplus VUI 362-7 boilers. It absorbs the volume increase of water as the system heats, limiting the pressure rise inside the appliance. It is a serviceable component fitted within the boiler casing.
Signs this part needs replacing
- Boiler pressure drops repeatedly and the system needs frequent topping up
- Pressure climbs sharply when the heating is running and falls again as it cools
- Water discharges from the pressure relief valve during heating cycles
- The vessel feels heavy or sounds full of water when tapped, with little or no air resonance
- System pressure will not hold steady even though no leaks are visible
Before you order
- Confirm your boiler model and GC number against the fitment list above
- Check the capacity and physical dimensions of the existing vessel against this 10 litre unit
- Check the connection thread and mounting arrangement on your appliance before ordering
