Unvented System - Groan/Water Hammer when opening hot faucet.

Hi barki
Did you ever get to the cause of the problem? I'm having the same issue now
Thanks
 
Flick the pressure vessel with your finger (not very technical, I know)
If the vessel sounds hollow, it won't need repressurising. Some vessels have to be mounted horizontally because of noise. Sometimes a non return valve letting by on a shower valve will cause hammering as well

@Liamw23 - you should really start a new thread and reference this one if you want suitable answers, it just confuses things resurrecting a 3 odd year old thread.

Ultimately get a G3/UVHW qualified engineer in to check it, unvented cylinders should be serviced yearly.
