When Should You Install, Repair, or Replace an Electric Hot Water System?

Installation:

Building a new home or renovating? Our team can help you select and install the right electric system from the start, one that’s sized correctly, energy-efficient, and installed to strict Australian standards.

Repair:

If your hot water is inconsistent, noisy, or taking too long to heat up, a repair may solve the issue without a full replacement. We offer rapid response and carry parts for most brands.

Replacement:

Systems over 10 years old, showing signs of rust, leaking, or frequent breakdowns are often more economical to replace. We’ll guide you through newer, more efficient options that reduce running costs.

Electric Storage Hot Water Systems

Still one of the most common and cost-effective choices for Brisbane homes, electric storage systems heat water in a tank and keep it ready for use. They’re ideal for households with moderate to high water usage.

Why choose electric storage?

  • Cheaper upfront costs
  • Easy to install and service
  • Circuit timer switches can be installed to run your system during peak solar generation hours, virtually eliminating electricity costs for homes with solar panels
  • Can be paired with off-peak tariffs for energy savings
  • Wide range of tank sizes available

Larger families or off-peak users may benefit from bigger tanks to avoid running out during high-demand periods. We help you choose the right size for your needs.

Electric Boosted Solar Hot Water Systems

Take advantage of Brisbane’s sunny climate by pairing your electric system with solar panels. A solar water heater does most of the work, while an electric booster ensures hot water is available when sunlight isn’t.

These systems are ideal for eco-conscious homes looking to cut energy bills without compromising on comfort. Our team can assess your roof orientation, usage habits, and advise on the right solution for your needs.

Instant Electric Hot Water Systems

Want hot water on demand without the bulky tank? Instant electric systems heat water as it flows through the unit, meaning no storage, no standby energy loss, and no waiting.

Perfect for:

  • Apartments or homes with limited space
  • Granny flats or studios
  • Kitchens, offices, or light-use areas

They’re compact, energy-smart, and deliver hot water precisely when and where you need it.

Trusted Brands We Service and Install

  • Rheem
  • Rinnai
  • Bosch

Perfect for smaller homes or families that want water on demand. No tank, no waiting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Electric Hot Water System FAQs

  • Yes—off-peak tariffs can cut your hot water energy costs by 30–50%. However, you may need a larger tank to store enough hot water for daytime use. We’ll explain your options and help you decide.

Here's What Our Customers Say

See what our local Brisbane customers are saying about our reliable plumbing services.

  • I had Tom from Weekend Plumbing Co. come out this morning, and I couldn’t be happier. From the moment I booked the appointment, the communication was smooth and friendly. Tom arrived on time, was professional, and took the time to explain what needed to be done before getting started. The quality of the work was excellent — efficient, thorough, and tidy. I would definitely recommend Weekend Plumbing Co. to anyone looking for reliable and top-notch plumbing service!

    Melanie Ullner
  • Tom came out to assess our blocked kitchen drains, he went above and beyond to ensure the sink was draining before he left. Even though we couldn’t afford the whole works required today, the quote was reasonable but out of my budget this week - he went to work with his plunger and made sure the sink was draining to see us through the next couple of weeks until we book in for repairs and maintenance. Really polite and punctual, highly recommend this business, especially grateful for Tom’s help today!

    Amanda Bate
