Kibkom North Cyprus Forum

Looking for owners recommendations of any reliable, professional products and installers of apartment rooftop hot water tanks.
Our first tank lasted 10 years, our present one only 15 months.
Any advice very much appreciated.
Our location is East side.

Many thanks .

Unsure where you are on the East-side. I live on a small estate 8 kms east of Esentepe. Everybody on our estate uses Seref for all of plumbing/water tank replacements. I can PM his 'phone number if you are interested. He works the local Esentepe area.

u cant recommend as who makes them not the boss just a worker if he does a ford friday job thats what you get . i have installed tanks 8,9 years ago no problem other 2 , 3 years gone . the thing is it all depends on the welds . also depends on the installation ? get it cheap you pay in the end as most times the pipe work needs changing as every time the spaces between the pipes change with the galvo pipe it needs altering

Such a true post!

we use paralik in lefkosa, on the industrial estate guarantee plus tidy work

If a supplier were to place a rusty nail in a tank before fitting it would reduce the life considerably. I'm not saying this goes on here but hey this is Cyprus.

Many thanks to all.

Do you want Seref's ' phone number via PM, he certainly covers Bahceli? He can quote you a price. Remember, inflation has raised prices over 30+% in the last year.

PM sent.
