FAQs
What are the most common signs that my tank water heater needs servicing or replacement?
Look for inconsistent or insufficient hot-water supply, rusty or discoloured water, rumbling or popping noises from the tank, water around the base of the heater, or suddenly higher energy bills. Any of these symptoms indicate that sediment has built up, the anode rod is exhausted, or the tank itself is starting to corrode. Calling a licensed Mascot plumber early can often save you from a full replacement and prevent water damage to your property.
How often should I have my tank water heater serviced in Mascot?
For Mascot’s water conditions we recommend a professional service at least once a year. An annual flush removes sediment that settles at the bottom of the tank, improving efficiency and extending life expectancy. During the visit we also test the temperature-pressure relief valve, check electrical or gas connections, and inspect/replace the sacrificial anode every 3–5 years. Regular maintenance keeps warranties valid and can easily extend a tank’s life from 8–10 years to 12–15 years.
Can you help me choose the right-size tank water heater for my household?
Absolutely. We consider the number of occupants, simultaneous appliance use, bathroom count, laundry habits, and whether you prefer off-peak electricity tariffs. As a quick guide: 125-160 L suits 1–2 people, 250 L suits 3–4, and 315-400 L works for 5+ or homes with high hot-water demand. After a free on-site assessment we’ll recommend models that meet your needs without wasting energy or water.
Do you provide emergency repairs for leaking or burst water heater tanks in Mascot?
Yes. Our local team is on call 24/7 for urgent issues. We’ll talk you through isolating the water and power/gas supply over the phone, then arrive with replacement valves, elements, thermostats, and fittings on board. If the tank has ruptured, we can install a temporary unit or organise a same-day replacement so you are never without hot water for long.
Are there energy-efficient storage water heaters available, and will they lower my power bills?
Modern high-efficiency gas storage heaters, high-star electric models with superior insulation, and hybrid heat-pump units can cut running costs by 20–50 %. We’ll explain upfront purchase price versus yearly savings and show you current NSW Energy Savings Scheme rebates that may apply. Our personalised cost-benefit analysis lets you see the precise payback period before committing.
What warranties and workmanship guarantees do you offer on new installations?
Most leading manufacturers offer 7–12 year tank warranties and 1–2 years on valves and controls. In addition, our company provides a 6-year labour warranty that covers all installation work, pipework, and fittings. If any defect related to our workmanship appears within that period, we repair or replace it at no cost, giving you complete peace of mind.
