    Hot water cylinder
    Can my hot water cylinder be relocated to my attic in order to free up useful cupboard space?

    If it's electric, then it likely can be moved, but this will require moving the piping up to the attic, as well as a dedicated breaker in the electrical service panel.

    The temperature and pressure relief line will also have to be moved and rerun.

    If it's gas fired, then you will need to check with the local authority to determine what the clearance requirements from combustibles are.
