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 terraces and properties in Wishaw have uninsulated copper cylinders that waste significant energy.

What size hot water cylinder do I need in Wishaw?

A 1–2 bedroom traditional terraces and property in Wishaw 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 terraces and properties in Wishaw looking to reduce energy costs.
