Hot water cylinders,
without the retail markup.
We are plumbers, so we buy cylinders on a trade account. You get that price. Delivered across Auckland by the people who could also install it.
All prices include GST · Installation quoted separately
- Cylinder just died and you want it replaced cheaply
- A mains pressure electric cylinder the same size as your old one. Cheapest to buy, straight swap.
- You want the power bill to drop
- A heat pump cylinder. Costs more up front, runs on about a third of the power.
- Header tank in the roof, gentle pressure
- You are on low pressure. Replace like for like, or ask about converting.
Trade prices, not retail
We buy through a plumbing trade account, not off a shop shelf. That is the whole reason the price is lower — there is no showroom markup in it.
We deliver it ourselves
Across Auckland, on our own truck, with two people to lift it. A cylinder is not a courier parcel and it does not arrive on a pallet at your gate.
We can fit it too
A cylinder is restricted plumbing work, so someone licensed has to connect it. We are that someone — tick the box and we will quote the installation.
What most people buy
Haier Heat Pump Cylinder 250L
The usual choice for a three to four bedroom home.
Mains Pressure Electric Cylinder 180L
The straight replacement for a failed electric cylinder.
Haier Heat Pump Cylinder 200L
Monoblock heat pump for one to three people.
Order it, we bring it, you decide about fitting.
Supply and installation are two separate decisions here. Plenty of people buy the cylinder from us and have their own plumber connect it. That is fine.

Fitting, if you want it
A cylinder has to be connected by someone licensed. Tick the install box and we will quote it — or use your own plumber.
Run by plumbers, not a warehouse.
Hot Water Direct is operated by Nexus Plumbing, Gas & Drainage — registered plumbers, gasfitters and drainlayers working across Auckland. If something is wrong with the cylinder, you are talking to the people who install them every week, not a call centre.
