Common issues with hot water systems
The average life of a hot water system is around 8-10 years, depending on type, model, and use. Common signs your hot water system may need to be professionally-assessed or repaired include:
- Reduced hot water: One of the surest signs something is wrong with your hot water system is having reduced hot water. If your home starts to run out of hot water quicker than normal, with similar usage, there may be an issue with the system.
- Water discolouration: Water that appears discoloured or rusty could indicate the presence of rust with the pipes or hot water system itself. A hot water plumber is needed in order to properly assess the cause.
- Loud noises: Hot water systems are designed to operate quietly. Hearing loud or unexplained noises could be an indication of worn components trying to perform as normal or indicate the accumulation of sediment.
- Leaking: Water leaking from your hot water system could be caused by a variety of issues such as high water pressure, loose fittings, or tank damage.
- Temperature fluctuations: We all have the perfect sweet spot when it comes to water temperature. However, variations in the normal temperature could be a sign of a problem with the heat source.
Types of hot water heaters
Hot water heaters are divided into two categories; ‘continuous’ systems heat water only when required and ‘storage’ systems heat and store water in an insulated tank.
These are further split according to the system heating method.
- Electric: One of the most common types of water heater, electric units are relatively-affordable and easy to install. T
- Gas: A natural gas system can be cheaper to run when compared to an electric system. Due to the use of gas, these systems generally require outdoor installation, or proper indoor ventilation.
- Heat Pump: A more efficient variety of electric system, heat pumps work like a refrigerator in reverse; extracting heat from the air to heat water. Heat pumps are ideal for warmer regions, where there is more warmth to extract. However, these hot water systems tend to be louder than other models.
- Solar: A type of tank powered by collected energy from installed solar panels. A popular eco-friendly choice for new homes in order to save on electricity bills in the long term.
