About this asset

Designed for MEP layouts, this freestanding hot water cylinder is a native Revit family featuring a slim white vertical tank body with grey end caps. The unit is modelled as a tall cylindrical water storage tank finished in smooth white with contrasting grey circular caps at the base and top. Service connections and ports are clearly arranged along the vertical perimeter, including brass-toned inlet and outlet tappings and side valve connections. Two rectangular inspection or electrical immersion heater covers are positioned along the facade, accented by orange identification plaques. Proportions represent an upright high-capacity thermal store, detailed with realistic pipe connection bosses and relief valve points for utility coordination.

The download is a 645 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

Load this RFA directly into your Revit project to coordinate domestic hot water services. The component places easily on floor slabs or plinths within plant rooms, allowing MEP engineers and coordinators to route connecting pipework to the defined terminal points. Verify family connection parameters, cold feed alignments, and secondary return circuits before finalizing technical risers and equipment schedules.

Engineered for residential developments, multi-family apartments, student housing, and light commercial schemes, this cylinder suits dedicated plant rooms, utility closets, and basement boiler rooms. It coordinates seamlessly alongside system boilers, expansion vessels, buffer vessels, and circulation pumps. Architectural technicians specifying unvented hot water systems, direct domestic hot water cylinders, or Megaflo storage units will find it suitable for spatial clash detection during technical design phases.
