You know, those cold showers never made sense. You can get those little solar bags campers use to heat up at least a little water. Put it out the window with a line coming in. Thermal absorption is not high tech. Blowing out circuits can be done with an EMP, and maybe magic is similar. EMP won't do crap to the bags.
Conspiracy Theorist:
Easy enough to put a solar water heater on the Castle Roof, and have it backed onto the open air pizza oven he is going to have to build, for back up heating.
Stainless steel for the toilets make sense, the former occupants were big lads with a heavy meat and mead diet

No, it never did, especially when an old fashioned gas water heater was basically a pilot light and a valve. What is more the likes of Thomas and other occasional guests would use it. Especially in Molly's apartment he had hot water.
Conspiracy Theorist:
A lot of old gas heating systems are no longer considered ‘safe’ because of carbon monoxide build up or risk of explosion, so you can’t get them fitted anymore.

Perhaps, but didn't Harry have a gas cook stove? I don't think it was a wood burning stove. Also while you may not be able to get a new old fashioned water heater, but as long as the old one functioned, you could keep on using it. So unless Harry's landlord decided to replace all the old water heaters in the building, it wasn't a problem.
