Hot water systems have a reputation for packing it in at the most inconvenient times. Yes, dealing with a freezing cold shower at midnight on a public holiday is extra-stressful – but that can lead many homeowners to compromise on what’s best for their property (and their household) just to get the situation sorted quickly.
When you need emergency hot water system replacement, you want a plumber who can get there FAST. But that doesn’t mean you should make a rushed decision about the replacement system. With the right knowledge and a professional team on your side, you can access quality plumbing service and the best products no matter when a plumbing disaster strikes.
The Salmon Plumbing Difference
Our team of hot water specialists have handled system replacement emergencies from one side of Brisbane to the other for more than two decades.
Call our 24/7 emergency plumbers for:
FAST RESPONSE: We aim to be with our Brisbane customers within the hour.
EXPERT ADVICE: If your hot water system has met its demise, we’ll assess your needs (household size, budget, water usage, etc.) and talk you through the best replacement options so that you can make an informed decision.
HOT WATER TODAY: In most cases, we can install your chosen replacement system on the same day. If that’s not possible, we’ll install a loaner system until your new one is ready. Bottom line: you will have hot water before we leave.
UPFRONT SERVICE: From our emergency call-out fee to the cost of your new system (including installation, and old system removal), we ensure transparent communication to avoid any confusion or invoice surprises.
The lifespan of a hot water system ranges from 8 – 20 years. If yours has been kicking on for at least a decade, it pays to do some research BEFORE an emergency occurs. That way, if the time comes that you need to choose a replacement system under emergency conditions, you’ll be less likely to panic and invest in the wrong system.
Not all hot water systems are created equal. Different models suit different environments and water usage styles. Some systems are designed to save money and harness solar power. Others are built for longevity or to ensure your shower never runs cold. The best hot water system for your home is the one that efficiently and effectively meets the needs of your household.
Choosing a hot water system
There’s a range of factors that will influence which hot water system is best for your property. By taking the time to consider these details, you can avoid getting stuck with a less-than-perfect system.
Things to consider when choosing a new hot water system include:
Household size and typical hot water usage
Energy efficiency
Budget for installation and long-term running costs
Tank capacity and the location where it will be installed
Local climate
Deal with hot water issues promptly
When plumbing goes wrong, you might be tempted to try a wait-and-see approach, but this is rarely a good idea.
Unfortunately, plumbing issues tend to get worse when left untreated. Over time, you could end up facing property damage or the need for a whole system replacement where a simple repair might once have done the trick.
Plumbing emergencies have a way of striking when you can least afford them. It’s tempting to cut costs where you can, but scrimping on emergency hot water system replacement could lead to years of higher energy bills or a hot water system that can’t keep up with household demand.
A high-quality system will stand the test of time and deliver more consistent hot water functionality, regardless of the demands of your household. This can end up saving you money in the long run, even reducing the likelihood of another emergency plumbing blowout.
