FAQ
Everything You Need To Know
How long should a hot water system last?
Most hot water systems last 8–12 years, depending on the type, water quality and how well they’re maintained. Regular servicing, such as valve checks and anode replacement, can extend lifespan. If your system is older than 10 years and showing signs of failure—like leaks, fluctuating temperatures or rusty water—it may be time to replace it.
Can I switch from electric to gas or solar hot water?
Yes, many homeowners upgrade from electric to gas or solar for efficiency and lower running costs. A licensed plumber can assess your property, install new connections if needed, and ensure the changeover complies with Australian Standards. Switching systems often reduces energy bills in the long term.
Why is my hot water running out so quickly?
This could be caused by a failing thermostat, a faulty element, sediment build-up inside the tank, or a system that’s simply too small for your household demand. A plumber can inspect the system, run diagnostic tests, and recommend whether repair or replacement is the best solution.
