As this type of system is not open to atmosphere, there is little possibility of oxygen being absorbed into the water and therefore a reduced risk of corrosion occurring within the system.

These systems require additional safety controls (often incorporated into the boiler) since there is no open vent, nor a permanent connection to a water supply.
