HWHot Water
Hot water systems
Storage and instantaneous hot water supplied, installed and commissioned, with the tempering valve set and the old unit taken away.
In detail
A hot water unit that has died gets replaced the same way regardless of brand: isolate, drain, disconnect, remove, mount, connect, fill, purge, commission. The part that separates a good install from a quick one is what happens after the water is back on.
The tempering valve gets set so the outlet temperature at the tap is safe, the relief line is run to a legal discharge point, and the unit is strapped and seated so it is not carrying its own weight on the connections.
Storage electric, storage gas and instantaneous gas are all different animals. Which one suits depends on how many outlets run at once, what the existing supply can carry, and what the run costs look like over the life of the unit.

How a job runs
Four steps, start to finish
Tell us what is happening
A message with the suburb, the problem and a photo. Most jobs can be narrowed down to one or two likely causes before anyone gets in a van.
Looked at on site
Quotes get worked out against your actual setup, not a price list. What is behind the wall changes the job, so the job gets priced after someone has seen it.
Price agreed before work starts
The price is agreed up front. If something genuinely unexpected turns up once things are open, work stops and you get a message before it continues.
Installed, tested, commissioned
Pipework tested before it is covered, appliances checked running rather than just connected, and the site left clean. Captions on completed jobs regularly note testing and commissioning.

Questions
Before you book
Send the suburb, a description of the job and a photo if you can. Most jobs get narrowed down before anyone attends, then the price is confirmed on site and agreed before work starts.
Yes. Their public positioning covers residential and commercial plumbing, drainage, gas fitting and maintenance. Ask with the suburb and what is happening.
The quoted price is agreed before work starts and covers the labour and materials for that scope. If something genuinely unexpected turns up once things are open, work stops and you get a message before it continues.
