New hot water cylinder—without the runaround.
Need a new hot water cylinder installed? We make it simple, clear and properly sorted.
Mr Cylinder helps Christchurch homeowners replace old, leaking or underperforming hot water cylinders with reliable systems that suit the home, the family and the budget. We give clear advice, explain your options, and install your new cylinder safely and neatly.

When your hot water cylinder starts causing problems
A failing hot water cylinder can create more than a cold shower. You may be dealing with poor pressure, running out of hot water, leaks, rising power costs or uncertainty over whether it is worth repairing again.
The hard part is knowing what to do next. Do you repair it? Replace it? Upgrade to mains pressure? Move it outside? Consider a heat pump cylinder?
That is where Mr Cylinder helps.
We created Mr Cylinder to give homeowners a clear, specialist place to turn when they need proper advice about hot water cylinders — not vague answers, not guesswork, and not a generic plumbing visit that leaves you more confused.

Common questions about hot water cylinder installation
How do I know if I need a new hot water cylinder?
If your cylinder is leaking, repeatedly failing, not producing enough hot water, or costing too much to keep repairing, replacement may be the smarter option.
Can you replace my old cylinder with a mains-pressure system?
Yes. We can assess whether a mains-pressure upgrade is suitable and explain what changes may be needed for your home.
Can the cylinder be installed outside?
In many cases, yes. Outdoor cylinders can free up indoor space and may be a good option depending on your layout and system requirements.
Do you install energy-efficient hot water cylinders?
Yes. We can talk you through energy-efficient options, including heat pump hot water systems where suitable.
Will you tell me if repair is better than replacement?
Yes. If a repair is sensible, we will say so. If replacement is the better long-term option, we will explain why clearly.
Do you service Christchurch homeowners?
Yes. Mr Cylinder provides hot water cylinder installation and replacement services across Christchurch and nearby areas.
