Water heater cylinder

Kimi_Dave

I hope someone can answer this.
If I am removing the bathtub do I need a hot water cylinder? The immersion heater has not been turned on in over a year!
The dishwasher and washing machine are not connected directly to the hot water supply and the shower is a power shower not reliant on the hot water in the cylinder.

We are on Economy 7 heating and using storage heaters so there is no central heating system reliant on the hot water either.

Thanks

If you don't need hot water from the taps then you don't need a hot water cylinder.

You'd have to heat any hot water you need either by using a kettle or you could get an instantaneous water heater to fit in the kitchen if required.

You might get some raised eyebrows when you come to sell the place or a slightly miffed landlord if you rent, so it might devalue your home a bit or you'd have to replace it with something if rented
