Frequently asked questions
Which hot water system is best for a Canberra home?+
For most 3–4 bedroom Canberra homes, a continuous-flow gas system or heat pump gives the best balance of running cost and reliability. Heat pumps attract ACT rebates but need adequate outdoor space.
How long does a hot water system install take?+
A like-for-like changeover is usually 2–4 hours. A fuel-type change (electric to heat pump, for example) can be a full day and may need electrical work.
How long should a hot water system last?+
Gas continuous flow 12–15 years, electric storage 8–12 years, heat pump 10–15 years. Regular anode and pressure valve service extends storage-tank life significantly.
Do you install heat pumps and manage the ACT rebate?+
Yes — we install Sanden, Reclaim and Stiebel Eltron heat pumps and guide eligible customers through the ACT rebate paperwork.
Can you fit a hot water system on the same day I call?+
For common gas continuous-flow and electric storage models, yes. Heat pumps and premium models may need next-day scheduling depending on stock.
