  • What are the signs I should repair or replace my hot water system?

    If you are concerned about the condition of your hot water system, it is best to speak to an expert so they can properly diagnose the issue. Signs include:

    • You run out of hot water 
    • You notice rust or discolouration in hot water 
    • Your water is lukewarm or cold 
    • You hear noises from the water heater 
    • You notice a water leak from your hot water system

  • How often should you replace your hot water system?

    The lifespan of a hot water system depends on various factors, such as the type of system, the quality of installation, and the level of maintenance. However, most hot water systems have an average lifespan of around 10-15 years.


    If your hot water system is over ten years old and experiencing frequent issues, it may be time to consider a replacement. Replacing an old and inefficient system with a new, energy-efficient model can save you money on energy bills in the long run.

  • How long does it take to install a hot water system?

    The time it takes to install a hot water system can vary depending on several factors, such as the type of system, the location of the installation, and any necessary modifications or upgrades to the plumbing or electrical system.


    Generally, a standard installation of a new hot water system can take 1-3 hours, depending on the complexity of the installation. However, this timeframe can vary based on the specific requirements of the installation.
