Talk about limited space! When we arrived onsite we immediately knew we would be challenged with this exceptional under-bench hot water cylinder. Existing cylinder tank is 45 Liters and needs to be replaced (burst) with an equivalent size. The problem though is that the new Rheem hot water cylinder is much wider at 535mm in diameter. This is mainly due to the fact that newer hot water cylinders are now manufactured with more insulation making them “fatter”. after Disassembling and relocating all plumbing to the left hand side of the sink bench we gained further 150mm which made it possible to fit the new under bench cylinder and ensure all valves trains and wastes are installed as required by NZS 3500. What initially seemed impossible worked out to be a 4.5 hour installation with a very pleased client! Another successful job for hotwatercylinders.nz!
