Default hydraulic boiler testing units

Hi there, I'm looking for a hydraulic unit needed to test boiler fittings up to 150 PSI / 14 Bar before these are permanently fitted to the boiler so if you've a unit which you no longer have a use for then please email me (eddiemat15@hotmail.co.uk) with details of condition, price and p&p. Many thanks.

look at your local plumbers merchants. Rothenberger make a good one for testing heating systems which should do what you need

When I worked for 'Speedyhire' a few years ago you could hire hydraulic test pumps. These went up to quite high pressures and were used for testing underground pipelines etc. Have a look on their website.

Hi folks, many thanks for all your help. If nobody has a unit for sale then as the Rothenberger 30 unit - or equivelant would suit, that's my PLAN B.
