Find The Right System Faster
Finding the best hot water solution means understanding your household or business requirements and choosing a system that matches them. Factors such as property size, number of occupants, water usage habits and available energy sources all play a role. We help take the guesswork out of the decision-making process and ensure smooth, efficient installation or repair.
- System Installations: Whether you’re building, renovating or upgrading, choosing the right unit upfront helps avoid ongoing problems. Consider gas, electric, solar or heat pump options depending on your energy needs and local infrastructure.
- Replacements & Upgrades: If your current system is constantly running out of hot water, leaking or over 10 years old, a replacement could save you on running costs and improve performance.
- Repairs & Servicing: Sudden loss of hot water? We diagnose the problem and complete all necessary repairs, including thermostat faults, element failures or pressure valve issues.
By addressing the root cause of issues and recommending practical, energy-smart systems, we help households and businesses stay comfortable, reduce running costs and improve efficiency.
What type of hot water system is best for a family home?
The best system depends on your household size, water usage and energy preferences. Electric storage systems are common for medium to large families, while continuous flow (instantaneous) gas systems suit homes with consistent demand. Heat pump or solar systems offer energy savings over time but come with a higher upfront cost. Always compare installation costs, energy ratings and capacity before choosing.
How long should a hot water system last?
Most hot water systems last between 8 to 12 years, depending on the type and how well they’re maintained. Regular servicing can extend the lifespan, especially for units exposed to hard water or frequent use. Signs like inconsistent temperature, rusty water or leaks may indicate it's time to replace or upgrade your system.
What’s the difference between gas and electric hot water systems?
Electric systems are generally cheaper to install and available in storage or instantaneous models. Gas systems often have lower running costs, particularly in homes with existing gas supply. Gas continuous flow systems are energy-efficient and heat water only when needed. The right choice depends on energy availability, budget and personal preference.
