It was posted on here at one time, by Drivel if memory serves me right.
No John i was refering to the 2 posts now removed, you may not have seen them.
I've read most of the rubbish from the sharks during the day so probably did.
There is a lot of talk.
Doitall, you made a fool of yourself before. You wrote in this very forum certain stories about how an accumulator could not boost flow rates, and others tried to stop you shooting yourself in the foot and reloading.
But you did. Sometimes you print pictures of expansion vessels you have plumbed in, or a pile of them on the back of a lorry.
You now claim that you knew about the benefits of them for years, although the internet and it's inerasable memory says otherwise by your own fair hand.
There is a patent, it has been reproduced on this forum. Debate it over your shandies if you must; if any of you wants to challenge it in Court and make the technology cheaper for all of us - then go ahead.
The booster system does work too - argue all you like, I will still be fitting them. I have found Darren Cooper to be an honest heating industry professional, and we have known him for some years.
If you want advice on accumulator applications, you'll fiind no better.

ouch
harsh.
mr cooper if he is such a decent Gent?
please explain if you can ,
why he and two others.
obviously allied.
put up what can only be described as threatening posts?
does he not realise that does him no credit?
as you say he may be an expert

Perhaps that was a bit harsh, so I've toned down my comments a bit.
GAH have bought UK rights to commercialise a patent obtained by a heating engineer.
Darren and whoever have, as far as I know (I think their post was removed before I saw it) been pointing out that where a patent has been granted, the owner and licensee have the law on their side to exploit their design for a period of 20 years.
Knowing that a patent has been granted, and that they paid to have the rights to a licence, are you surprised that GAH would want to defend their investment?
If anyone here thinks that it was such an obvious idea, and can demonstrably show that they thought of, and exploited it first, then the patent could be effectively challenged.
Let's see who will put their money where their ego is?

You have a short memory simond.
I did not say they didn't boost the flow rate, and I would be wrong if I did.
You claimed they increased the pressure which is crap, you can only do that mechanically.
I also know the difference between an expansion vessel and an accumulator, and your buddy Cooper isn't the only one making them.
There is no need to dispute my memory, it is all here in the archived discussions.
And to be pedantic, an accumulator can boost the working pressure of an unvented system, which is the only type of pressure you can have a shower under.

any pressure vessel would do that
please how is it anything special
been using vessels on a similar principal for years for pressurisation units

No it cannot, it can assist and maintain the pressure, it will not boost it to higher than the incoming mains pressure
