Telford Copper Cylinders, Ltd.

Telford Copper Cylinders is a family run business which began trading in 1989 from the premises it still occupies today. These premises now act as its Head Office. The original factory has been extended on a number of occasions since then to keep up with the increased demand for its products. With the advent of new plumbing systems requiring diverse raw materials we now have a second site manufacturing cylinders in stainless steel. From the beginning, Telford set out to manufacture a broad range of copper cylinders. Our copper division has developed from manufacturing traditional vented cylinders to now include commercial calorifiers and the advanced Tristor thermal store units, which are available as Manual-fill, "Washing Machine", solar recovery and underfloor heating variants. As the market for plumbing and water storage cylinders has changed, Telford Copper Cylinders have adapted to ensure we are always at the cutting edge of technology, making new products without compromising our first principle of quality. We also have a commitment to offer a professional after care service, which includes dedicated personnel as well as nationwide support through its team of service engineers. The traditional vented cylinder has recently undergone a major change. The building regulations (Part L in England and Wales, Part J in Scotland) have been altered to ensure that domestic hot water system design is more energy efficient than in the past. This was linked to a revision to the British standards covering indirect and direct copper cylinders. The standards now call for thicker material to resist corrosion better and larger coils to take advantage of higher efficiency condensing boilers now available.
