Climate Plus can assess and maintain all major types of hot water systems in Australia:

• Storage hot water systems have insulated storage tanks that heat and store hot water until you’re ready to use it. They come in electric storage and gas storage variations. As they store hot water before use, they need to be checked for any leaks that can disrupt your usage and increase your water bills.
• Instantaneous hot water systems, also known as continuous flow systems, don’t require a hot water tank. They can heat water as soon as it’s needed, and are powered by gas or electricity. Maintenance for instantaneous systems can involve flushing to prevent mineral buildup, and descaling.
• Heat pump systems absorb heat from the environment to produce hot water. For heat pump systems, cleaning and defrosting the evaporator coil and thermostat checks are important.
• Solar hot water systems use solar panels to produce hot water and store it in a tank. They’re environmentally friendly, but may require a backup hot water system during prolonged periods of cloudy weather. Solar systems need to be checked for shading, dust and damage to solar panels.

• Extend system lifespan: Through hot water system maintenance, you’ll be able to discover system issues before they become big problems. Your system will last longer and prevent you from having to buy a replacement model.
• Energy efficiency and lower bills: A well-maintained hot water heater means you’re not wasting water or electricity. Not only is it better for the environment, you’ll also save on your water bills.
• Constant supply of hot water: By maintaining your system, you can count on your hot water needs always being met.
• Improved safety: With continued maintenance, your hot water system will work properly and remain safe to use. A neglected system may result in scalding and can become a breeding ground for bacteria such as Legionella.
• Save money on urgent hot water repairs: If you ignore hot water system issues today, they can become disasters tomorrow. And, if it’s beyond repair, then replacing hot water systems in your home is even more expensive.

• Inconsistent or insufficient hot water: If you’re unexpectedly running out of hot water, it could be a sign that your hot water system needs maintenance.
• Strange noises: Hearing banging, knocking or sizzling noises from your system? It may have some loose components or sediment buildup, both issues that can require repairs.
• Leaking: Even a small leak could signal that your system needs repairs or maintenance.
• Energy bills are higher than normal: If you notice your power bill going up, it could indicate that your hot water system is leaking or running inefficiently.
• Discoloured water: Any cloudy or dirty-looking water could be a sign of something wrong in your hot water system that requires inspection or repair.
• Inconsistent water pressure: When water frequently goes from flowing freely to slowly, it could mean that there are issues with your system that need maintenance

• Sediment build-up in the system, if left untreated, can cause your system to work harder to heat water. This leads to higher energy bills.
• Corrosion and rust can lead to discoloured and/or smelly water.
• An old water heater can wear down over time or be less efficient than a newer hot water system.
• Faulty components like thermostats, heating elements and valves cause your hot water to be heated inconsistently and inefficiently.
• Low water pressure, which is often caused by blocked drains, faulty pressure valves and incorrect or ill-fitted plumbing.
