Joule Cyclone Plus Direct Slim Unvented Hot Water Cylinder 90L 120L 150L 180L 210L

Joule Cyclone Plus Direct Slim Unvented Hot Water Cylinder 90L 120L 150L 180L 210L

The Joule Cyclone Plus Direct Slim is a direct electric unvented hot water cylinder engineered for homes and apartments where space is tight but performance cannot be compromised. Available in five capacities — 90L, 120L, 150L, 180L and 210L — its reduced slimline 475 mm diameter lets it fit into airing cupboards, plant rooms and loft spaces that defeat standard-sized cylinders. Built from Duplex LDX 2101 stainless steel and tested to BS EN 12897:2016, it delivers full mains-pressure hot water to single or multiple outlets with a market-leading 25-year cylinder warranty.

Installer requirement: Unvented hot water cylinders must be installed and commissioned by a qualified G3 unvented installer. All work must comply with Building Regulations Part G (England & Wales) or the equivalent regulations in Scotland and Northern Ireland. The Benchmark Commissioning Checklist must be completed and left with the customer.
Water quality note: Joule's 25-year warranty does not cover damage caused by water with a Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) content above 600 mg/L. In areas approaching this limit, fit an appropriate in-line filter. Where any water parameter exceeds Joule's stated limits, a Joule Wellmaster cylinder must be specified instead.
All-front connections: Every plumbing connection on the Cyclone Plus Direct Slim is accessible from the front of the unit, making it straightforward to site against a wall or in a corner — a real-world advantage in tight cupboard installations.
Key Features
Duplex Stainless Steel Construction

The cylinder vessel is fabricated from Duplex LDX 2101 stainless steel — a grade chosen for its excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. It handles both soft and moderately hard UK water supplies, and carries the full 25-year manufacturer's warranty against faulty materials and manufacture.

Slimline 475 mm Diameter

At 475 mm diameter, this range is narrower than standard hot water cylinders. That reduction in footprint makes it the natural choice for conversions, loft rooms, narrow cupboards, and apartment risers where a full-width cylinder simply won't fit — without sacrificing capacity or pressure.

Factory-Fitted 3 kW Incoloy Immersion

Each cylinder leaves the factory with a 3 kW Incoloy immersion heater already installed and tested at 230 V. Incoloy resists scale build-up better than copper elements and is Joule's standard choice for long service life. The heater is controlled by a dual-stat assembly with a high-limit thermal cut-out for safety.

Mains Pressure Hot Water

Unlike vented cylinders that rely on a cold-water storage tank, unvented systems connect directly to the mains cold supply. This delivers fast-flowing, high-pressure hot water to every tap and shower simultaneously — no pump required, no gravity-fed trickle from the top-floor bathroom.

Low Heat Loss CFC/HCFC-Free Foam

The cylinder is wrapped in dense, high-efficiency polyurethane foam insulation with an ODP of 0 and GWP of 1 — the most environmentally benign foam insulation class available. This translates to a measured heat loss of 1.68 kWh/24h (150 L model, per ErP data), keeping running costs low between heating cycles.

Complete Unvented Safety Kit Supplied

Every cylinder is supplied with a full G3 unvented kit: inlet control group (including pressure-reducing valve, non-return valve, expansion relief valve and line strainer), expansion vessel and hose, temperature & pressure relief valve, tundish, and dual cylinder thermostat with high-limit cut-out. No chasing separate components.

White Goods Outer Casing

The cylinder is finished in a clean white outer casing — the same aesthetic language as modern white goods — with a grey polycarbonate T&P safety cover. It looks at home in utility rooms, en-suite cupboards, and any installation where appearance matters.

Compatible with Smart Immersion Controllers

The factory-fitted immersion heater connects to standard UK time-switch and thermostat controls, and is also compatible with solar PV immersion diverters (such as myenergi eddi or similar). Owners with solar panels can divert surplus generation into the cylinder for free hot water — no extra hardware needed on the cylinder side.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who can install an unvented hot water cylinder?
Installation must be carried out by a G3-qualified unvented installer — either a registered plumber holding the relevant unvented qualification or a suitably qualified engineer. The work must comply with Building Regulations Part G and the Benchmark Commissioning Checklist must be completed and left with the customer. Failure to use a qualified installer invalidates the warranty and may breach building regulations.
What is the difference between a Direct and Indirect unvented cylinder?
A direct cylinder (this model) heats water solely by its own electric immersion heater(s). An indirect cylinder includes one or more coils through which heat from a boiler, heat pump, or solar system is transferred to the stored water. Choose direct if you have no wet heating system, or if you want an electric-only backup without any primary heat source connections.
What size cylinder do I need?
A common rule of thumb is 35–45 L per person in the household. A 90 L cylinder typically suits 1–2 people; 120–150 L suits 2–3 people; 180–210 L suits 3–4+ people or properties with high simultaneous demand (e.g. multiple bathrooms in regular use). Your installer can calculate demand more precisely based on your shower flow rates and usage patterns.
Can I connect a solar PV diverter or solar thermal to this cylinder?
Yes — the immersion heater is fully compatible with solar PV surplus diverters such as myenergi eddi, iBoost, or similar devices. These divert excess solar electricity into the immersion to heat water for free. For solar thermal (hot water panels), you would need the Joule Cyclone Plus Solar Twin Coil variant, which includes a dedicated solar coil.
How often does an unvented cylinder need servicing?
Joule and Building Regulations guidance recommend an annual service by a qualified engineer. During a service the engineer will check and test the T&P relief valve, expansion relief valve, inlet group strainer, expansion vessel pre-charge pressure, and thermostat settings. Regular servicing maintains safety, efficiency, and the validity of the warranty.
What water quality is required to maintain the Joule warranty?
Joule's warranty remains valid provided the incoming water supply has a Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) content of 600 mg/L or below. In areas where TDS approaches this limit, an in-line filter is strongly recommended. If any water parameter exceeds Joule's stated limits — including total hardness — a Joule Wellmaster cylinder (designed for harder or high-TDS supplies) must be used instead.
