With expertise in all types of hot water systems and a commitment to quality service, we’ll ensure you have hot water whenever you need it.
Solar Hot Water Systems
Perfect for Canberra’s sunny climate, these systems use solar panels to harness energy, significantly reducing running costs and greenhouse gas emissions. While initial installation costs are higher, government rebates make solar a smart, long-term investment.
Gas Systems:
Powered by natural gas or LPG, these systems are efficient, reliable, and ideal for instant hot water. They’re particularly effective during Canberra’s colder months, delivering steady performance with cost efficiency.
Electric Systems:
A cost-effective solution for homes without gas access, electric systems are easy to install and maintain. Modern options now include energy-saving features, and off-peak tariffs can help reduce ongoing costs.
Heat Pumps:
Eco-friendly and energy-efficient, heat pumps extract heat from the air to warm your water. While the upfront cost is higher, their superior performance in Canberra’s climate makes them a top choice for reducing energy bills and emissions.
Common Hot Water System Issues We Fix
Water Pressure Problems
Low or fluctuating water pressure can disrupt your hot water flow. Our team identifies the root cause—like blocked pipes or faulty pressure valves—and restores steady, reliable performance.
Temperature Fluctuations
If your water isn’t heating properly or the temperature is inconsistent, we’ll inspect thermostats, heating elements, and other components to fix the issue or recommend a replacement if necessary.
Leaks and Pipework Repairs
Leaking pipes can lead to water wastage and costly repairs. We’ll locate and fix leaks efficiently, ensuring the entire system is sealed and functioning properly.
Strange Noises
Popping, banging, or other unusual noises often indicate sediment buildup or a faulty component. We’ll flush your system and address any issues to keep it running quietly.
Airlocks and Flow Issues
Blocked air in your pipes can reduce water flow. Our professionals use proven techniques to clear airlocks and restore smooth operation.
Limescale and Sediment Build-Up
Over time, limescale can reduce your system’s efficiency. We offer descaling services to extend the lifespan of your system and improve its performance.
Faulty Hot Water Tanks
If your hot water tank is damaged or worn out, we’ll assess whether a repair or full replacement is the most cost-effective solution.
