Mornin' All,
yesterday I visited a horse stable block in the middle of nowhere. One of the stalls has been converted into a "utility room" for caravaners. It contains a cheap dim L.E.D. ceiling light, a washing machine, a tumble drier and a small domestic unvented water heater for hot water, containing two 3kW heating elements, all run on a 4.0mm2 underground S.W.A. cable about 100 metres away in a house. But that is not the issue here.
The unvented cylinder has lots of copper pipework attached, all with no thermal insulation. Bearing in mind that this "room" is a very well ventilated horse stall outside, what are the main safety concerns regarding the unvented hot water system?
Thoughts please.
Z.
