Not Heating Or Showing A Code

The unit will not fire up, runs cold or flashes an error code. We find the fault and tell you whether a repair or a new unit is the better spend.

Water Going Hot And Cold

Temperature swinging mid-shower, or a weak flow of hot water, is often a blocked inlet filter, a tap running too low for the unit to stay on, or a gas supply that cannot keep up.

Gas Line Checks And Upgrades

A continuous flow unit burns far more gas while it runs than a storage tank, so we check the meter and pipe size and upgrade the gas line where it is too small.

How Bad Is Your Instant Hot Water Problem?

Gas Smell Near The Unit

Turn the gas off at the meter if you can reach it safely, do not use flames or switches nearby, and call from outside.

Unit Will Not Fire Up

No hot water at any tap, or a code flashing on the unit or the controller. Write the code down, check the gas is on at the meter, then book us in to find the fault.

Hot And Cold Mid-Shower

Annoying but not dangerous. It is often low flow, a blocked filter or a unit due for a service, so book a time that suits.

How We Install Instant Hot Water

Instant hot water installation Sydney wide: check the supply, fit the unit, then test every hot tap.

Check The Supply

We check the gas meter, the water pressure and where the unit can go before anything is quoted. If the gas line is too small for the unit, the upgrade is in the fixed price before you say yes.

Fit And Connect

The new unit goes on the wall or into a recess box and is connected to the gas, cold and hot water lines. When it is replacing an old hot water heater, that one is disconnected and taken away first.

Test Every Hot Tap

We run each hot tap and shower, check the temperature and flow, check the gas connections for leaks, and show you how the unit works.

Instant Hot Water FAQs

Answer:

It depends on whether the unit is gas or electric, its size, whether it replaces a tank or an old unit, and whether the gas line or a recess box needs work. You get one fixed price for the unit installed before any work starts, and nothing is charged until you say yes.

Answer:

No. In NSW the water connections are licensed plumbing work and the gas connection needs a licensed gasfitter. Most manufacturers also need a licensed install for the warranty to apply.

Answer:

A storage system heats a tank of water and keeps it hot, so a busy household can run it empty. An instant system heats water only as it flows through, so it does not run out while a tap is on, as long as it is sized for the taps running at once.

Answer:

Yes. Instant, instantaneous and continuous flow all describe a unit that heats water as it passes through instead of storing it. Boiling water taps for the kitchen are a different product.

Answer:

Usually, yes. The main checks are whether your gas meter and gas line can supply the unit, and where it can be mounted. If the gas line needs upgrading, we tell you and include it in the fixed price before any work starts.

Answer:

The usual causes are a tap or shower running too low for the unit to stay on, a blocked water inlet filter, or a gas supply that cannot keep up when several hot taps are running. We check each one and tell you which it is.

Answer:

Yes. Most manufacturers recommend regular servicing. A service checks the burner, the gas pressure, the water inlet filter and the connections so the unit keeps heating properly.

Answer:

Where the right unit is available and the gas supply is already big enough, same-day installation is what we aim for. If the gas line or a recess box needs work, we tell you how long it will take before we start.

Answer:

Electric instant units exist, but a whole-house unit draws far more power than a tank and often needs a three-phase supply, so they suit fewer Sydney homes than gas. We check what your property can run before recommending one.
