Highlander Plumbing are experts in repairing and fixing problems with hot water systems, hot water tank servicing and can also install a full range of hot water heaters as well.
Problems can occur with hot water systems from internal rust, sediment build up, incorrectly installed water heaters or basic neglect. There are common problems or hot water repairs associated with hot water systems:
- Overflowing or leaking hot water tank.
- The water heater runs out quickly or only produces warm water
- Slow hot water recovery due to sediment build-up.
- Popping or banging noise coming from the hot water tank.
- Temperature pressure relief (TPR) valve is leaking.
- Discoloured water or unsightly smell coming from the hot water tank.
Problems like sediment build up in the water tank can reduce your water heater's energy efficiency and also clog your water lines. Preventative maintenance can extend the life of your hot water tank and double its life expectancy. Avoid these problems and increase the life of your unit by checking your hot water system:
- All water heaters should be frequently checked for leaks. It's important to check the pipe connections, the valves and underneath the unit.
- Test the temperature/pressure relief valve once a year to make sure it's working. A tempering valve has on average a 5yr lifespan and cannot be serviced. We recommend these are replaced every three to five years.
- The anode rods should be inspected at least every six months for corrosion. An anode has on average a 5yr lifespan and cannot be serviced. We recommend these are replaced every three to five years.
- We suggest your hot water system be checked and undergo a general clean and service every two years.
We’ll show you how to do a preventative maintenance program and extend the life of your hot water tank. A well managed preventative maintenance program can save you a fortune in breakdowns and repairs and call out fees by a hot water plumber. There are several reasons why you should service your hot water system.:
- You will prolong the life of your hot water system and save money on replacing a hot water tank.
- You will not have to suffer the inconvenience of a hot water system that is not working property.
- You will save money on electricity or gas when your tank is operating correctly.
