Hot Water Cylinder Services Across Auckland
From villas in Ponsonby to 1960s builds in East Auckland, aging hot water cylinders are one of the most common callouts we get across the city. Many Auckland homes still run cylinders well past their 15-20 year lifespan — and when they fail, it's usually without warning.
Whether your home is on reticulated gas or electric only, we handle both sides of the job. As a certified plumber and gasfitter, we take care of the water and gas connections in one visit — no need to book a second tradesman. We service all Auckland suburbs, from the North Shore to South Auckland and everywhere in between.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a hot water cylinder replacement cost in Auckland?
It depends on the type (electric vs gas, low pressure vs mains pressure) and accessibility. We quote on-site before starting — no guesswork. Give us a call and we'll give you a ballpark over the phone.
Should I go cylinder or continuous flow?
Depends on your household. Continuous flow (like Rinnai Infinity) gives endless hot water and suits larger families. Cylinders are simpler and cheaper upfront. If your Auckland home has reticulated gas, both options work well. We'll help you decide.
Can you do a same-day replacement?
In most cases, yes. Common cylinder sizes and Rinnai units are readily available from our suppliers. If your old one has failed, we'll get you back in hot water the same day where possible.
Do I need a gasfitter for a gas hot water system?
Yes. Any gas hot water system, whether it is a gas cylinder or continuous flow unit, must be installed by a certified gasfitter. Water & Gas Worx is both a registered plumber and certified gasfitter, so we handle the full installation including plumbing, gas connection, and gas safety certification in one visit.
