How do I maintain my hot water system?
Regular maintenance includes checking the pressure relief valve, inspecting for leaks or rust, and flushing the tank to remove sediment buildup. For electric systems, test the thermostat and element periodically. Gas systems should be checked for burner efficiency and carbon buildup. Solar systems require inspection of collectors and booster function. Professional servicing every 1–2 years helps extend system life, ensures safe operation and improves performance by catching problems early before they escalate.
What is the difference between storage and instant hot water systems?
Storage systems heat and store a set volume of hot water in a tank, ready for use. Once the tank is empty, users must wait for it to refill and reheat. Instant or continuous flow systems heat water on demand as it flows through the unit — no storage tank needed. Instant systems offer endless hot water and better energy efficiency, while storage systems are often cheaper upfront and can deliver higher flow rates to multiple outlets simultaneously.
Can cold weather affect hot water systems?
Yes, cold weather can impact hot water systems. In winter, water entering the tank is colder, so systems must work harder and may take longer to heat. In extreme conditions, outdoor units or exposed pipes can freeze, restricting flow or causing damage. Continuous flow systems may shut down temporarily if internal components freeze. Proper insulation, frost protection and regular servicing help systems cope with seasonal temperature changes and maintain performance year-round.
What are signs that my hot water system is failing?
Warning signs include fluctuating water temperatures, low pressure, rust-coloured water, strange noises, leaks around the tank or high energy bills. Older systems (8+ years) with frequent issues are more likely to fail soon. Sudden changes in hot water supply, or a complete loss of heating, often signal a failing element, thermostat or tank breach. Monitoring performance and arranging inspections can help prevent a complete breakdown and plan for timely replacement.
