Frequently Asked Questions
What are the main types of hot water systems?
Hot water systems generally fall into four categories: electric, gas, solar and heat pump. Each has its own advantages depending on energy availability, household size and water usage.
In Dubbo, where sunny conditions are common, solar or gas systems can be especially cost-effective. Choosing the right option depends on energy efficiency goals, installation space and budget, so professional advice helps ensure the most suitable choice.
Why does my hot water take so long to heat up?
Slow-heating water can result from sediment build-up, worn elements or long pipe runs between the heater and tap. Older or undersized systems often struggle to meet household demand.
In Dubbo homes, mineral-rich water can accelerate sediment accumulation, reducing heating efficiency. Regular maintenance, flushing and insulation help restore performance, while upgrading to a newer system may resolve recurring delays in water temperature.
How long does a hot water system usually last?
Most hot water systems last between 8 and 15 years, depending on the type, water quality and how well they’re maintained. In Dubbo, hard water can shorten a system’s lifespan if not serviced regularly.
Routine inspections, anode replacement and tank flushing extend longevity and improve efficiency. When repairs become frequent or energy use rises, it’s often more cost-effective to install a modern, energy-efficient replacement.
Choosing a New Hot Water System?
When it comes to choosing the right hot water system for your property, there are two main points to consider: the type of system and the type of service.

Whilst choosing is usually down to personal preference, sometimes local water quality will dictate which is the better option! Give us a call to see which is most appropriate for your needs and location.
