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.Â
Preparing for installationÂ
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.Â
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.Â
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.

Hot water system TPR valve discharge pipe install
$800
North Sydney NSW 2060, Australia
3rd Sep 2025
Hot water system in apartment has been repositioned and needs a new discharge pipe installed. The system is ~1.5m from the existing drainage pipe (in pic). Looks like the TPR valve is at least 10cm higher than the drainage pipe. Looking to get a pipe run along the wall and through a riser. A small notch would need to be cut in the riser to get it through. Would prefer to talk through this piece of work to fully scope it out before confirming it.


Really excellent work. Very grateful for Diego’s work.

Poor hot water pressure
$250
Sunbury VIC 3429, Australia
20th Aug 2025
Since we moved in our hot water pressure has been pretty poor. We have a small tank and an infinite hot water. Sometimes the hot water will go cold for a few minutes if two people in the shower and then goes hot again. Sometimes the hot water pump makes a pretty loud noise. Hoping we can fix this with a licenced plumber. Happy if you need to come out and give a quote for works.


Took care of business!
