Replacement FAQs

How do I know it's time to replace my hot water system?

The clearest signs are a leaking tank, persistent rusty water, frequent breakdowns, or a system that is over 10-12 years old. If your energy bills have been climbing or the unit can no longer keep up with your household demand, those are also strong indicators. We provide honest assessments and will recommend repair over replacement when it makes financial sense.

Do you remove and dispose of my old hot water system?

Yes, removal and disposal of your old system is included in every replacement. We disconnect the existing unit, safely remove it from your property, and dispose of it responsibly. You do not need to organise anything separately — it is all handled as part of the job.

How long does a hot water replacement take?

A straightforward like-for-like replacement — such as electric to electric or gas to gas — typically takes 3-4 hours. If you are switching system types, for example moving from an electric storage tank to a heat pump, it may take 4-8 hours to accommodate new plumbing, electrical, or drainage requirements. Many replacements are completed same-day.

Can I upgrade to a different type of hot water system?

Absolutely. Many Gold Coast homeowners are upgrading from old electric storage tanks to energy-efficient heat pumps or from ageing gas systems to continuous flow units. We assess your home's existing infrastructure, household size, roof space, and budget to recommend the best option. Upgrading to a heat pump or solar system can also unlock significant government rebates.

Do you handle all the rebate paperwork?

Yes. Government STC rebates for heat pumps and solar hot water systems involve specific paperwork and compliance steps. We handle the entire process — from confirming your eligibility to submitting the documentation — so the rebate is applied upfront as a discount on your invoice. You do not need to claim anything back after the fact.

What warranty comes with a new installation?

Every replacement includes the manufacturer's warranty on the unit, which typically ranges from 5 to 10 years depending on the brand and model. On top of that, our labour and workmanship is covered by our own installation guarantee. We provide all warranty documentation at the completion of the job and are always available if you need support down the track.
