How long do hot water systems typically last?

Lifespan varies by type, usage, and maintenance. Storage tanks average 10-15 years; continuous flow can be 15-20+ years. Regular servicing extends life.

What's that rumbling sound from my hot water tank?

Rumbling or knocking usually means sediment build-up at the tank bottom. This reduces efficiency and can cause damage. Maintenance (flushing) often resolves it.

Can you help me choose a new hot water system if mine needs replacing?

Certainly. Our hot water specialists assess your needs, explain options (storage, continuous flow, heat pump, solar), and help you select the best system for your home in West Killara before performing the water heater installation.

Is hot water system maintenance necessary?

Yes. Just like servicing a car, regular hot water maintenance ensures efficiency, extends lifespan by preventing corrosion/sediment, checks safety components, and catches minor issues before costly hot water system repairs are needed.

What does a tempering valve do?

A tempering valve mixes hot water with cold to deliver water at a safe temperature (typically below 50°C) to taps, preventing scalding risks. They are often legally required.
