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.

Leaking under tap, hot water inconsistent in ensuite bathroom
$150
Teneriffe QLD, Australia
28th Jul 2025
We’d like to request a visit to address a couple of plumbing issues at the property: 1. Leaking Kitchen Sink (Priority) The kitchen sink is still leaking and dripping, even after a recent repair attempt by our handyman. We now need a professional to assess and resolve the issue properly. 2. Hot Water Flow Issues in Ensuite (Secondary) In the ensuite bathroom, there’s an unusual issue: • We have dual showers, but only one consistently receives hot water. The second only gets hot water if the first is turned on. • The basin mixer tap also doesn’t receive hot water unless hot water is already running elsewhere in the house. For context: the property was tenanted for over 15 years, and the space wasn’t well-maintained. We recently completed renovations, so the home looks fresh, but some underlying quirks remain — like these. We’d appreciate it if you could prioritise fixing the kitchen sink, and if time allows, investigate the hot water issues as well.


Nice guy, explained my problem(s) and articulated them well. Fix my leaking kitchen sink in about ten minutes (first time he left still leaking, but came back first thing next morning and fixed it). Quality and efficient work. He knows his stuff.

My hot water system is only producing warm and lukewarm water ever since winter started. I’ve found the issue is the Tempering valve needs replacement. How much would it cost for you to supply and install a new 1/2 inch tempering valve to the existing hot water system? I’ll need a plumber to check everything is okay with it, and fix the issue.

Hot Water System (suspected faulty relay)

Have spoken to 2 different plumbers this morning and both reckon it could be a faulty relay. I’ve replaced the thermostat a couple of times (brand new ones) and the hot water system is just not coming back on. Not convinced it's the element but have been told more likely an electrician issue.

Investigate / Fix Hot Water Gas Pipes in House
$100
Norman Park QLD, Australia
19th Jun 2025
Title: Need Hot Water System Expert – Inspection & Quote Description: Hi there, We’ve just moved into a large house in Norman Park and are having a few issues with our hot water system (photo attached – looks like a gas heating unit). Here’s what we’re experiencing: In the kitchen (approx. 10–15m from the unit), it takes 30 seconds to 1 minute for hot water to come through – and it’s not very hot. In the bathroom sink (right near the unit), the hot water fluctuates constantly – hot, then cold, then hot again. We’re not sure if it’s a problem with the pipes, if the unit is too small or outdated, or something else entirely. We’d love someone experienced with this kind of issue to come and inspect the system and provide a quote for fixing it. Thanks in advance!


Awesome Tasker, will use again!
