OSO Delta A-Rated 180L Pre-plumbed Indirect Unvented Hot Water Cylinder

OSO Delta A-Rated 180L Pre-plumbed Indirect Unvented Hot Water Cylinder

The OSO Delta DC180PP is an ErP A-rated, pre-plumbed indirect unvented hot water cylinder — the most energy-efficient 180-litre cylinder available in the UK market. The award-winning Delta series achieves its Class A rating through a patented combination of Vacuum Insulation Panels (VIPs) and 4th-generation foam, reducing standing heat loss by approximately 1 kWh per day versus a comparable C-rated cylinder. The pre-plumbed (PP) configuration incorporates an integral expansion vessel and pre-fitted cold-feed assembly, cutting on-site installation time by up to 70%. At 595 mm diameter × 1165 mm height and weighing 42 kg empty, it fits within a standard UK airing cupboard. Rated for 10 bar pressure with a 22-minute recovery time at ErP A.

Key Features
Vacuum Insulation Panels — ErP A Rated

The OSO Delta is unique in achieving ErP Class A across its full capacity range. This is made possible by combining Vacuum Insulation Panels (VIPs) — a technology borrowed from cryogenic engineering — with 4th-generation polyurethane foam. The result is dramatically lower standing heat loss than any C-rated competitor: saving approximately 1 kWh per day in the popular 210 L size versus a C-rated cylinder. Over a year, that is meaningful energy and cost saving for every household.

Award-Winning OSO Design

The Delta series is industry award-winning and recognised as the most energy-efficient unvented hot water cylinder range available. OSO cylinders are shorter than most competitors at equivalent volume — producing up to 20% more hot water per unit of height. This means you can often downsize the floor plan footprint when switching to OSO without losing capacity.

Pre-Plumbed — Up to 70% Labour Saving

The DC pre-plumbed (PP) configuration includes an integral expansion vessel and pre-fitted cold-feed assembly — saving up to 70% of installation labour compared to an unplumbed cylinder requiring separate component fitting. This makes the DC PP particularly popular with housebuilders, developers and new-build programmes where installation speed and repeatability matter.

Digital Thermostat with Anti-Legionella and Holiday Modes

The OSO Delta is supplied with a digital adjustable thermostat (20–70 °C, preset 60 °C) with built-in anti-legionella pasteurisation and holiday mode. The anti-legionella cycle automatically heats the cylinder to above 60 °C at set intervals to suppress Legionella bacteria — a requirement under HSG274 guidance for commercial and multi-occupancy buildings.

Honeywell Motorised Valve Included

The pre-plumbed kit includes a Honeywell V4043H 2-port motorised valve — a market-standard, widely-stocked component that installers and service engineers are familiar with. If a valve ever needs replacement, sourcing is straightforward from any plumbing merchant. The full G3 kit is included: strainer, PRV, expansion relief valve, drain cock, tundish, T&P relief valve (10 bar / 90–95 °C).

Adjustable Factory-Fitted Feet

The cylinder sits on factory-fitted adjustable feet, making it straightforward to level on uneven plant room floors without shimming. The feet also raise the cylinder slightly off the floor, helping to protect against damp and making inspection of the base easier during annual servicing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the OSO Delta A-rated when most cylinders are C-rated?
ErP heat loss ratings for indirect hot water cylinders are primarily determined by standing heat loss in kWh/24h. The Delta achieves Class A by combining Vacuum Insulation Panels (VIPs) — panels containing near-vacuum cavities with a thermal conductivity far lower than any foam — with 4th-generation dense polyurethane foam. Together they reduce heat loss to a level that no foam-only design can match. OSO is the only brand offering A-rated cylinders across the full 150–300 L range.
What is the difference between the pre-plumbed (PP) and standard (unplumbed) Delta?
The pre-plumbed (PP) version — this product — has the integral expansion vessel and cold-feed pre-plumbing factory-assembled. This saves installers from fitting the expansion vessel, hose and inlet group assembly on site, cutting installation time by up to 70%. The unplumbed version gives the installer more flexibility in component positioning but takes longer to install. For new-build programmes, the PP version is the natural choice.
Who must install an unvented hot water cylinder?
Installation must be carried out by a G3-qualified engineer registered under the Building Regulations Part G competent person scheme (or a suitably supervised engineer working under G3 oversight). The Benchmark Commissioning Checklist must be completed and handed to the customer at handover. Non-compliant installation invalidates the warranty and may breach building regulations.
Is the OSO Delta compatible with heat pumps?
Yes — the OSO Delta Coil (DC) indirect range is designed to work with gas, oil and LPG boilers, electric boilers, and air source heat pumps via the single heating coil. For heat pump applications, the recovery time will depend on the heat pump output. If you are pairing with a heat pump, ask about the OSO Supercoil (SC) variant which has a larger coil surface area optimised for the lower flow temperatures typical of heat pumps.
Does the OSO Delta need annual servicing?
Yes — annual servicing by a G3-qualified engineer is required. During the annual service, the engineer checks the T&P relief valve, expansion relief valve, PRV, strainer, motorised valve operation, expansion vessel pre-charge, and the digital thermostat settings. The anti-legionella function should also be verified as active.
