Hot Water Cylinder Installation & Servicing

Reliable Repairs, Replacements & Maintenance by Certified Experts

Whether you’re experiencing hot water issues or upgrading your system, Urbanic Services LTD offers expert hot water cylinder services across London. From diagnosing faulty systems to installing modern, energy-efficient cylinders, our team is here to keep your water supply running smoothly — and your home comfortable.

What Is a Hot Water Cylinder?

A hot water cylinder stores and heats water for use in your taps, showers, and appliances. Over time, limescale buildup, leaks, or worn components can cause your system to lose efficiency or stop working altogether.

That’s where we come in.

We install, service, and repair all major types of hot water cylinders — keeping your system safe, clean, and reliable all year round.

Types of Hot Water Cylinders We Install & Service

These gravity-fed systems use a cold water tank (usually in your loft) to supply the cylinder. They’re a cost-effective, low-maintenance solution for many homes.

Unvented Hot Water Cylinders

Fed directly by the mains water supply, these offer better pressure and don’t require a storage tank — ideal for homes short on space.

High water pressure

Compact setup

Unvented Hot Water CyDirect Hot Water Cylinderslinders

Water is heated inside the cylinder using an immersion heater. Ideal for homes without gas boilers.

Electric heating

Indirect Hot Water Cylinders

These cylinders rely on an external boiler to heat water via a coil inside the tank.

Compatible with traditional heating systems
