WELCOME TO YOUR THERMAL STORAGE SYSTEM
PULSACOIL 2000 – THE POWER BEHIND YOUR DOMESTIC HOT WATER
The hot water in your home is supplied by a highly efficient thermal storage system that offers numerous benefits. Easy to use and highly efficient, your PulsaCoil 2000 Thermal Store is unlike any other water heating system you’ve encountered before. This booklet will explain its unique features and guide you on how to optimise its performance.
OPERATING CHARACTERISTICS
- Provide hot water at mains pressure, whenever needed.
- Operates efficiently to meet your household needs cost-effectively.
- Ensure the hot water at every tap is fresh and hasn’t deteriorated in storage tanks.
The Gledhill PulsaCoil 2000 thermal store is the core of your hot water system. It maintains hot water at a constant temperature and uses a highly efficient plate heat exchanger to heat the water for all your domestic needs. The thermal store is superbly insulated, minimizing heat loss.
Off-peak supplies are automatically used to heat the thermal store. Additionally, you have the option* to switch to the on-peak electricity supply when necessary, providing a ‘boost’ to the top part of the thermal store. This ensures the most efficient way to meet your system demands.

The water supplied to your taps and showers is delivered at high pressure, utilizing the mains pressure from your cold water supply.
The PulsaCoil connects directly to the mains system, where water passes through a highly efficient heat exchanger to increase its temperature before reaching your taps and showers. This efficient system ensures both high flow rates and pressures, optimizing performance for both baths and showers.
Water tanks in the loft are typically necessary for traditional domestic hot water systems to provide adequate water pressure, determined by the height of the cistern above the tap. In contrast, the Gledhill PulsaCoil 2000 system utilizes the pressure from your cold water mains, eliminating the need for these cisterns.
This approach alleviates concerns about freezing or contamination of the cold water system by insects, dust, or birds. It also frees up additional storage space for your use if needed.
The installer should have filled the plastic feed tank to the water line during commissioning. It’s important to check the water level in the plastic feed tank regularly, typically 3-4 times a year, and top it up as needed to approximately halfway.
After topping up or checking the level, always securely replace the lid. For added convenience, an optional sight glass can be installed on the side of the feed tank to eliminate the need to remove the lid for water level checks. Follow the steps in our video guide to fill your tank.
If your PulsaCoil develops a fault during the warranty period, switch off the unit and promptly contact your house manager or installer. Avoid attempting to remove or adjust any component yourself.
Once the developer’s warranty has expired, contact PulsaCoil 2000 to arrange a repair.
Next to the PulsaCoil, you’ll find an off-peak controller with a manual boost switch or facility. Switch this on for an hour in the late afternoon to enhance the heat in the top part of the Thermal Store on days when a significant amount of hot water is needed.
If you’re planning to change your electricity supplier, it’s crucial to ensure they offer a tariff that matches or exceeds your current one. Otherwise, it could impact the operation and running costs of the appliance.
