Looking to change your hot water system?
Hot water systems are an essential part of everyday life, when they work you really don't pay much attention to them , it's when they stop working that you notice!

There are a few signals to look out for that your hot water system may be on its way out, such as :
​

Age of the Hot Water System - Hot water systems aren't designed to last forever! Average life span of a Hot Water System is 10 years but can vary.  
Water Temperature - Have you noticed that the temperature of the water doesn't last as long as usual? Perhaps the shower turns cold halfway through or maybe you run out of hot water quicker than you used to.
Rusty coloured water- This is an indication that the inside of your hot water system has started to rust and needs to be changed.

So you have identified that you need to change your hot water system, but now what?
Hot water systems can only be installed by licensed Plumbers, if your hot water system is a gas hot water system you will need to make sure that your Plumber is also a Gas Fitter.  An electrician will also be required unless your plumber has a restricted electrical licence.
New hot water systems require installation of the following valves:
  • Pressure Limiting Valves  
  • Tempering Valve 
  • Cold water Expansion Valve 
  • Non Return Valve
After the work has been completed a Form 4 for notifiable works will then be lodged to document the change of the Hot Water System.

 Sound complicated?

Here at Plumbnorth our Cairns Plumbers can organise the process for you, we arrange for the supply of all materials required and organise a qualified local electrician to attend site for the disconnect and reconnect of your hot water system, removing the need for you to contact multiple trades.
So if you are looking for a hot water system to be replaced by a plumber in Cairns then give Plumbnorth a call today on 07 4032 3891.
