⚠ Installer Requirement — G3 Competent Person
Unvented hot water cylinders must be installed and commissioned by a G3 accredited competent person in accordance with Building Regulations Approved Document G3 (England & Wales) or equivalent Scottish / Northern Irish regulations. All electrical connections must be completed by a qualified electrician to current IET Wiring Regulations. The Benchmark commissioning checklist must be completed at installation.
ℹ Direct (electrically heated) models
Hurricane Direct cylinders are heated entirely by their twin 3 kW immersion heaters — suitable for use with Economy 7 / off-peak electricity tariffs, or continuous direct supply. They do not connect to a boiler. If you need boiler or heat-pump primary heating, please see the Hurricane Indirect range.
KEY FEATURES
Duplex Stainless Steel Construction

Every Hurricane Direct is fabricated from Duplex stainless steel, combining superior corrosion resistance with a high strength-to-weight ratio. All 22 mm compression fittings and coils are manufactured from 316L grade stainless steel — a higher corrosion specification than standard austenitic grades. The inner container carries a lifetime manufacturing warranty.

Twin 3 kW Immersion Heaters

All Hurricane Direct models are fitted with dual 3 kW immersion heaters (6 kW total), enabling faster heat-up and the flexibility of running both heaters simultaneously for a quick boost, or just one lower element overnight on an Economy 7 / off-peak tariff. Both heaters include independent thermostats and manual-reset thermal cut-outs for safety.

Mains Pressure Hot Water

As an unvented cylinder fed directly from the cold-water mains, the Hurricane Direct operates at 3 bar and accepts incoming supply pressures up to 12 bar (regulated by the supplied inlet control group). This delivers high-pressure, high-flow hot water to multiple outlets simultaneously without loft tanks or shower pumps.

External Expansion Vessel Supplied

The Hurricane Direct uses an external expansion vessel — supplied as standard with every cylinder, complete with a factory-fitted wall mounting bracket. Vessel size is matched to cylinder capacity: 8 L (90 L cylinder) · 12 L (125 & 150 L) · 18 L (170 & 200 L) · 24 L (250 & 300 L).

Full Unvented Kit Included

Every Hurricane Direct ships with a complete unvented component kit: inlet control group (PRV · pressure relief valve · check valve · strainer · isolator) · tundish · factory-fitted 7 bar / 90 °C T&P relief valve · expansion vessel with bracket. All components meet relevant BS EN standards. WRAS approved.

Made in Britain — Lifetime Inner Tank Warranty

Telford cylinders have been manufactured in Britain for over 35 years at their Telford, Shropshire facility. The inner container carries a lifetime manufacturing warranty against faulty manufacture or materials (subject to correct installation and maintenance). All other components carry a 2-year warranty from the date of manufacture.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is the Hurricane Direct suitable for Economy 7 or off-peak electricity tariffs?
Yes — the Hurricane Direct's twin immersion heater configuration is well suited to Economy 7 installations. The lower immersion heater can be wired to operate on the off-peak overnight tariff to heat the full cylinder at lower cost, while the upper immersion heater provides a daytime boost if additional hot water is needed. Correct wiring for Economy 7 must be carried out by a qualified electrician.
Why does the 200 L Hurricane Direct have a shorter height than the 170 L?
The 90–170 L models use a 510 mm diameter vessel, while the 200–300 L models step up to a 580 mm diameter. The wider body allows greater capacity at a shorter height, which is why the 200 L (1150 mm tall, 580 mm Ø) is shorter than the 170 L (1200 mm tall, 510 mm Ø). This wider-body design also gives the larger models a more compact footprint relative to their capacity, aiding installation in plant rooms.
Does the Hurricane Direct need an external expansion vessel?
Yes — the Hurricane Direct uses an external expansion vessel (unlike some cylinders with internal expansion). This is supplied as standard with every model, complete with a wall mounting bracket. The vessel is sized to the cylinder: 8 L for 90 L · 12 L for 125–150 L · 18 L for 170–200 L · 24 L for 250–300 L. The vessel must be installed in accordance with the installation instructions.
What is the difference between the Hurricane Direct and Hurricane Indirect?
The Hurricane Direct is heated entirely by its twin 3 kW electric immersion heaters — there is no boiler coil. It is the right choice for all-electric homes or where a boiler is unavailable. The Hurricane Indirect has an internal primary heating coil connected to a gas, oil, or heat-pump boiler, with a single 3 kW immersion heater as backup — delivering faster recovery and lower running costs where a boiler is available.
What warranty does the Hurricane Direct carry?
The inner stainless steel container carries a lifetime manufacturing warranty against faulty manufacture or materials, subject to: correct installation by a G3 competent person; the cylinder being used solely for storage of mains public supply water; not being modified or tampered with; and being maintained in accordance with the installation instructions. A completed Benchmark Checklist and evidence of purchase are required for warranty claims. All other components (immersion heaters, valves, expansion vessel) carry a 2-year warranty.
