Frequently Asked Questions
How many years does a hot water cylinder last?
In New Zealand, a well-maintained hot water cylinder typically lasts between 10 to 20 years. Lifespan depends on the cylinder type, water quality, and whether regular servicing is carried out. If you are unsure about the condition of your current system, our team can inspect it and advise whether repair or replacement is the best option.
What is the most efficient hot water cylinder?
Stainless steel hot water cylinders are considered among the most energy-efficient options available in New Zealand. They retain heat better, resist corrosion, and generally have a longer lifespan compared to copper models. For even greater efficiency, consider a mains pressure cylinder paired with a smart controller or a heat pump water heater.
How to tell if a hot water cylinder needs replacing?
Signs your hot water cylinder may need replacing include inconsistent water temperature, rusty or discoloured water, water pooling around the base, or strange noises coming from the tank. If you're experiencing any of these issues, Holmes Plumbing & Gas can assess the system and provide expert advice on whether Hot Water Cylinder Repairs or a full replacement is required.
Does a hot water cylinder use a lot of electricity?
Hot water cylinders are one of the larger energy users in the home, especially older or poorly insulated models. Upgrading to a modern, well-insulated cylinder or adding a timer can reduce electricity usage. Regular maintenance also ensures your cylinder operates efficiently.

Which is better – copper or stainless steel hot water cylinder?
Stainless steel hot water cylinders generally outperform copper in terms of durability and efficiency. They resist corrosion, offer better heat retention, and often come with longer warranties. While copper cylinders are more affordable upfront, stainless steel is typically a smarter long-term investment.
