FAQ
Why is my hot water system not producing enough hot water?
Insufficient hot water could be due to a variety of issues depending on the system type. Common causes include a faulty thermostat, broken heating element, sediment build-up in the tank, or the system being too small for household demand. In gas systems, the pilot light might have gone out or there may be a gas supply issue. For solar or heat pump systems, weather conditions and faulty boosters can affect performance. A licensed plumber can diagnose the issue, carry out necessary repairs, and recommend whether a repair or upgrade is the most cost-effective solution for your current and future needs.
What’s the average lifespan of a hot water system?
Most hot water systems last between 8 and 15 years, depending on the type, quality, and how well they’re maintained. Electric and gas systems typically last around 10 years, while solar or heat pump models may last slightly longer. Regular servicing, including flushing sediment, inspecting valves and replacing worn parts, can extend the lifespan. If you notice rusty water, inconsistent temperature, or leaking from the unit, it may be reaching the end of its life. A plumber can help you decide whether to repair the system or replace it with a more energy-efficient, modern option that suits your usage needs.
How do I choose the right hot water system for my home?
Choosing the right hot water system depends on your household size, water usage habits, available energy sources, and budget. Electric systems are widely available and affordable upfront but can have higher running costs. Gas systems are great for continuous flow and lower long-term bills if gas is available. Solar systems are energy-efficient and environmentally friendly but require a higher upfront investment. Heat pump systems also offer energy savings and are suited to warm climates. A licensed plumber can assess your needs, explain each system's pros and cons, and help you select the best option for your property and budget.
