Electric hot water heater repair and installation in Parramatta

hot water heater repairs parramatta

Parramatta hot water repairs.

We were contacted by a customer in Rydalmere (near Parramatta) whose internal, electric hot water heater had started leaking.  Living in a unit, the customer was very concerned d water would start leaking into the apartment below. We escalated the problem to an emergency repair and our hot water specialist, Steve, was on-site within the hour.

While Steve was en route to the property, hot water specialist John explained over the phone to the customer how to turn off the water supply to the system thereby preventing more water from leaking from the split tank.

Once onsite, Steve quickly determined that the old hot water tank had split. He quickly isolated the hot water system from the main power supply to safely inspect and find the location of the leak.  Unfortunately, the split in the tank was too large to repair.  Sadly, replacement parts are no longer manufactured for very old hot water systems and there is no alternative but to replace them with a new hot water system.

Steve discussed suitable replacement hot water heater options, taking into consideration the customer’s budget, space available, and household hot water usage requirements.

The customer had been very happy with the reliability of their old Rheem hot water system so were happy to install a new Rheem in its place. With this in mind, Steve recommended the Rheem 50 litre electric hot water heater (model: 191050).

Within an hour or so, Steve had removed the old hot water system and had installed the new Rheem 50 litre electric hot water heater back in the same location in the customer’s laundry.
