Frequently Asked Questions

My hot water is not working. What should I check first?

If your hot water is not working, the first thing you should check is whether other gas or electrical appliances are working. Depending on your system, you can also check the circuit breaker, controller settings or pilot light by following the manufacturer’s instructions. Don’t remove covers or attempt gas, plumbing or electrical repairs yourself. If you notice leaking water, a gas smell or damaged wiring, arrange professional help.

How long does a hot water system last?

The average hot water system lasts around 12-13 years, although this varies with the system type, installation and maintenance. If yours is more than 10 years old, leaking or needing frequent repairs, it may be time to plan a hot water system replacement.

Should I Replace Like-for-Like or Switch to a Heat Pump Hot Water System?

A like-for-like replacement may require fewer changes. A heat pump could reduce energy use, but the right option will depend on your hot water needs, available space, electrical setup and budget. Eligible Victorian households may also access a heat pump hot water rebate Victoria offers of up to $1,000, or up to $1,400 for an eligible locally made product, under the Victorian Government hot water replacement scheme. Check the current eligibility requirements before proceeding.

What affects hot water system replacement costs in Melbourne?

Your hot water system replacement cost in Melbourne will depend on the system type, capacity, whether it’s a like-for-like replacement or changeover, and any gas, plumbing or electrical upgrades required. We’ll assess the existing setup before providing a detailed quote.
