When should I replace my hot water cylinder?

If your cylinder is over 15 years old, poorly insulated, or not providing enough hot water, it's time for an upgrade. Many older traditional tenements and properties in Easter Road have uninsulated copper cylinders that waste significant energy.

What size hot water cylinder do I need in Easter Road?

A 1–2 bedroom traditional tenements and property in Easter Road needs a 120–150 litre cylinder. 3–4 bedrooms need 180–250 litres. If you have a bath, we recommend at least 150 litres for comfortable use.

Can a new cylinder work with solar panels?

Yes, modern dual-coil cylinders have a dedicated solar input, allowing solar thermal panels to pre-heat your water for free. This is an excellent upgrade for traditional tenements and properties in Easter Road looking to reduce energy costs.
