I am putting in a new hot water cyclinder a Rheem mains pressure and live rural. I cant decide if we need a 180L or 250L. The house is two bedrooms, allowing for 2xAdults& 1x child with a dishwasher, farm overalls so lots of washing. Will the 180L be large enough for 2-3 people! What do others think.

You wash clothes in hot water!!

2 people, occasional child here and we never run out of 180l.

dishwashers make their own hot water dont they!

we have a 180 litre. had 4 adults living here at one point and didnt run out of hot water. and dishwashers should heat there own water as said above so that doesnt count

180 litres will be plenty. Could always good for a 180 litre quick recovery cylinder
