What do hot water system installation services include?
Hot water system installation services include all the activities necessary to put a reliable, safe hot water system in your home. This involves installing an unvented hot water system, inspecting the installation area, preparing materials, installing the cylinder or tank, then making the needed connections. After the installation, your plumber can test the system for flaws and address them as needed.
Inspecting installation area
Your water heater installation begins with a thorough inspection of the spot that will house the tank and its components. Your plumber makes sure that the floor is robust enough to support the cylinder's weight and complies with established building codes and safety rules and regulations. If the allotted space is deemed insufficient for the cylinder, your plumber can help you look for an alternative spot for the unvented cylinder service.
Preparing for installation
Your plumber makes the necessary preparations for the hot water cylinder installation. If necessary, some plumbers may offer to make an improvised platform of sturdy materials to support the tank's weight. Otherwise, you can hire a Tasker to handle all your carpentry needs.
When appropriate, your hired plumber shuts off the power, gas, and water supply before starting the job. They can take all the necessary measurements to determine the right amount of materials, then cuts and bends wires and pipes to the appropriate lengths and widths. Your plumber may also cut holes into walls or floors as needed to allow pipes or wires to run through.
Installing the cylinder
Once the cylinder's space is ready, your plumber can proceed with the unvented hot water cylinder installation. They can place the cylinder or tank onto its designated space and position. Your plumber takes care not to damage any of the components of the vented hot water cylinder or other pipes and wires in its surroundings.
Installing components and pipes
After the cylinder is in position, your specialist proceeds with attaching the appropriate pipes, wires and components like the Temperature and Pressure Release valve, expansion vessel, immersion heater, and any other pipes and valves. As with all other stages of the unvented cylinder installation, they use appropriate materials and techniques that are compliant with state safety and building regulations and industry best practices.
Testing the system
Your hired plumber tests the system after completing the installation. They check that each tap and shower head provides hot water on demand and flows with consistent pressure. Should variations in temperature or pressure arise, your plumber can troubleshoot the system and do the appropriate fixes.
They repeat this process until the hot water system works without any issues. And now that your home has hot water running through your taps, tubs, and showers, why not ensure greater warmth and comfort in every room of your home? On Airtasker, you can also hire an insulation installer who can help you cut down on bills and achieve year-round comfort.

Remove hot water tank, replace shelf, re-install tank
$400
Elwood VIC, Australia
26th Oct 2024
My hot water tank has been installed on a shelf that was only being held up on three sides by staples. The weight of the unit has caused the shelf to collapse over time. You can see in the photos where the staples have been pulled from the shelf. No signs of leaks/water damage/rot - just a bent shelf. The water tank is now on a lean. Ideally I'd like the tank removed, shelf or as much of the shelf as possible removed, a new shelf put in with bracing underneath to stop it from sagging (I have a large piece of chip board that can be cut to size for this), and the tank re-installed. Or part of the existing shelf can be removed and the water unit can sit on the floor beneath. I have a drill/hammer drill/multi tool/sander and various other tools, lots of screws and lots of scrap chipboard/MDF. Need something to cut the wood.

Hot water system has been working fine despite it being an old unit. Occasionally, the hot water won’t turn on even if the system is lit, but usually comes on in 5-10min. However, two days ago the same thing happen and it still won’t turn on. No water flows out of the taps.
Amazing help and very prompt. Thank you!

Plumber bend & fit pipes & water flow valve for hot water unit.
$300
Port Melbourne VIC 3207, Australia
14th Jun 2024
Need 2 x 3/4 copper pipes re-bent & joined into the hot water unit. First picture, need new (I or you can supply) water shut of valve for hot water unit and new bends fitted in then fitted back into the unit. Second and third pictures, need 1 copper line bent up to the tempering valve then fitted back into hot water unit. Turn water on, let tank fill and test for leaks.
Didn't replace the requiered duo valve stating that by late Saturday afternoon he hadn't the time to get one and asked me if it was faulty? Set a hot water feed pipe so that it was hitting the hot water tank on the side. Left us with a new leak at a tempering valve. Took some extra saying that he'd return the following day to place lagging though didn't show. As a former American bike technician & dealer principal I say 2/10.
