Hot Water Cylinder Consumer Servicing Guide

The Hot Water Cylinder Consumer Servicing Guide has been produced by the industry under the guidance of the Hot Water Association (HWA), detailing what they can expect when having their hot water storage cylinder serviced by a registered engineer.   This guide lays out an agreed industry best-practice approach to hot water cylinder servicing, whilst noting the important role played by manufacturer’s’ instructions.   The aim is to educate consumers on the standards they should expect and details a list of the steps engineers should take when they visit a customer’s home.
