JAB TSC 150L Direct E7 Man-Fill Thermal Store Cylinder

JAB TSC 150L Direct E7 Man-Fill Thermal Store Cylinder

The JAB TSC 150L Direct E7 Man-Fill is a direct electric open-vented thermal store designed to deliver mains-pressure hot water using Economy 7 or off-peak electricity, specifically engineered for new-build apartments and other buildings where routing an unvented cylinder discharge pipe is impractical or prohibited. As a thermal store, the primary water vessel operates at atmospheric pressure — eliminating the need for a temperature and pressure relief valve, discharge pipework, or Part G G3 annual maintenance. The 150-litre store charges overnight during cheap-rate hours, with mains-pressure hot water delivered via an internal heat exchanger coil. The Man-Fill configuration means the store is filled via a dedicated fill point, keeping the primary circuit separate from the domestic cold mains. HWA specification compliant and Part L1A approved.

Apartment-compliant solution: Building Regulations Part G prohibits connecting a discharge pipe from an unvented cylinder into a soil stack. The JAB TSC thermal store operates at atmospheric pressure and requires no discharge pipe at all — making it the correct and compliant solution for new-build apartment installations.
Electrical connection: The immersion heater circuit must be wired by a Part P competent electrician. The E7 immersion requires a dedicated Economy 7 supply with appropriate time-switching to the off-peak rate — confirm with the property's electrical supply arrangements before ordering.
Key Features
Open Vented Thermal Store — No G3 Discharge Pipe Required

The JAB TSC operates as an open vented thermal store at atmospheric pressure. Unlike unvented cylinders, it does not require a temperature and pressure relief valve or a discharge pipe. This directly solves a common installation problem in apartment buildings where Building Regulations Part G prohibits routing a discharge pipe into a soil stack — making the JAB TSC the compliant solution where an unvented cylinder cannot legally be installed.

Mains-Pressure Hot Water via Internal Coil

The mains cold water supply passes through an internal heat exchanger coil inside the primary store. The store water is heated by the immersion heater and transfers heat across the coil to the incoming cold, delivering fast-flowing mains-pressure hot water to taps and showers — with no pump required and no pressure losses typical of gravity-fed systems.

Economy 7 / Off-Peak Electric Optimised

The JAB TSC is specifically designed for Economy 7 and off-peak electricity tariffs. The large store volume (150 L, 180 L or 210 L) is heated overnight during cheap-rate hours and holds sufficient hot energy for an entire day's domestic use. This makes it the natural choice for new-build apartments without a gas connection where electricity tariff optimisation reduces running costs.

Scale-Free Primary Water — No Annual Maintenance

The immersion elements are permanently immersed in the same primary (store) water, which is never renewed. Since this water is not replaced, no scaling of the elements occurs — even in hard water areas. JAB thermal stores therefore do not require the annual maintenance that unvented cylinders demand under Building Regulations, reducing whole-life running costs.

Manual Fill (Man-Fill) Configuration

The Man-Fill (manual fill) configuration means the primary store is filled manually via a fill point rather than being permanently connected to the mains cold supply for the store. This simplifies the installation pipework and is the preferred configuration for new-build apartments where the store circuit is kept isolated from the domestic mains. The mains connection is only made to the heat exchanger coil serving the hot water outlets.

HWA Compliant — Part L1A Approved

The JAB TSC range fully complies with the HWA (Hot Water Association) specification for thermal stores and meets Part L1A Building Regulations for both new build and refurbishment. JAB's innovative design ensures installation and ongoing maintenance are straightforward — the installer-friendly layout reduces commissioning time on site.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a thermal store and an unvented cylinder?
An unvented cylinder stores domestic hot water under mains pressure — it requires a T&P relief valve and a discharge pipe routed to a safe termination point. A thermal store (like the JAB TSC) stores heated primary water at atmospheric pressure in an open-vented configuration. The mains cold water passes through a heat exchanger coil and picks up heat — it never enters the store. This means no T&P valve and no discharge pipe are required, which is critical in apartment buildings where discharge pipe routing is prohibited by Part G.
Does the JAB TSC need a qualified installer?
As an open-vented thermal store, the JAB TSC does not fall under the Part G G3 unvented regulations — it does not need a G3-qualified installer. However, installation must still be carried out by a competent plumber in accordance with the installation manual and Building Regulations Part L1A. Electrical connections to the immersion heaters must be made by a Part P competent electrician.
Does the JAB thermal store need annual servicing like an unvented cylinder?
No — JAB thermal stores do not require the annual maintenance prescribed for unvented cylinders under Building Regulations. The primary store water is never replaced, so no scale builds up on the immersion elements. There is no T&P valve or expansion relief valve to test annually. Periodic inspection of the heat exchanger connections and blend valve is advisable, but this is not the same annual regulatory requirement that applies to G3 unvented systems.
Can the JAB TSC be used in a hard water area?
Yes — the JAB thermal store has a natural advantage in hard water areas. Because the primary store water is never renewed, it can only deposit scale once when first heated. Subsequent heating cycles use the same softened (de-gassed) water, so the immersion elements do not accumulate scale over time. Limescale may form in the heat exchanger coil over time if mains water is very hard, but this occurs far more slowly than in a direct cylinder.
What tariff should the JAB TSC be used with?
The JAB TSC is optimised for Economy 7, Economy 10, or any time-of-use tariff with a defined cheap-rate overnight window. The large store volume is heated during cheap-rate hours and retains sufficient stored heat for the following day's use without requiring daytime top-up in most households. Time switches or smart immersion controllers can be used to control which hours the immersion heater operates.
