Where Eastern Suburbs hot water units live

Every hot water Eastern Suburbs building is different, and where the unit sits changes the job:

  • Apartment cupboards. Electric storage tanks squeezed into a cupboard, often with tight access.
  • Balconies and external walls. Continuous flow units mounted outside and exposed to the weather.
  • Terrace laundries. Gas or electric tanks out the back of Paddington and Surry Hills terraces.
  • Central plant. Some older blocks run one hot water system for every unit, managed by the strata.

Access and space shape every hot water Eastern Suburbs job, so we check both before quoting.

Salt air and outdoor units

Near the beach, salt air corrodes outdoor hot water units, valves and fittings faster than it does inland:

  • Hot water repairs Bondi homes book can involve corroded valves on outdoor units.
  • Hot water repairs Coogee units need are often continuous flow systems on balconies.
  • Hot water repairs Maroubra homes book include older tanks in laundries and garages.

A hot water Eastern Suburbs unit close to the sand is worth a service every year or two, because the relief valve and fittings wear faster.

Most faults come down to one part: an element, a thermostat, a pilot, a thermocouple or a relief valve. We carry the common parts in the van, so many hot water Eastern Suburbs repairs are done on the first visit. For a hot water repair Waterloo apartments need, we work with the building manager on access. More on the process is on our hot water repairs page.

Replacements and installation

When a unit is past saving, a hot water installation Eastern Suburbs homes book with us covers supply, installation and removal of the old unit. In apartments, the new unit has to fit the same cupboard or balcony spot, so sizing and access come first. In terraces with gas, a continuous flow unit can free up space in a small laundry. A new hot water Eastern Suburbs unit is sized for the household, and our licensed gas fitters certify any gas work.

For hot water, Eastern Suburbs strata buildings may also need the owners corporation's approval before an external unit changes, so check the by-laws before booking. See hot water system replacement for the options.

Strata and central hot water

Where a building runs central hot water plant, the strata manager books the work, and we report back with photos and an itemised invoice. Central systems are the largest hot water Eastern Suburbs jobs, because one failure affects every unit. For everything else in the area, see our plumber Eastern Suburbs page.
