If your hot water system is getting old, breaking down regularly or no longer meeting your household’s needs, replacement may be a better long-term solution than continued repairs.
Illawarra Hot Water can help you replace your existing hot water system with a new system suited to your household, property and hot water requirements.
Hot water systems don’t last forever. As a system ages, repairs can become more frequent and operating performance can decline.
Frequent breakdowns
Repeated repair bills
A leaking or corroded tank
Insufficient hot water
Increasing energy costs
Poor heating performance
An ageing system
Difficulty finding replacement parts
A system that no longer suits your household
Replacing your system before a complete failure can also help prevent an unexpected period without hot water.
A replacement is an opportunity to reconsider whether your current system is still the best choice for your household.
For example, you may be able to move from a traditional electric storage system to a more energy-efficient heat pump system, depending on your property’s suitability.
Electric storage systems are a familiar and practical option for many Australian homes. They are available in a range of capacities to suit different household requirements.
Gas hot water systems can provide reliable hot water and are available as both storage and continuous flow systems.
Solar hot water systems use energy from the sun to heat water and can help reduce reliance on conventional energy sources.
Heat pumps use heat from the surrounding air to heat water efficiently. They can be an excellent option for households looking to improve energy efficiency.
The right choice depends on your household’s hot water requirements, property and available services.
Replacing your hot water system can be a straightforward process when the new system is compatible with the existing installation.
We can help with:
1. Assessing your existing system
2. Understanding your requirements
Your household size and hot water usage help determine the appropriate replacement.
3. Comparing system options
We can help you compare different technologies and capacities.
4. Removing the existing system
The old hot water unit can be removed as part of the replacement process.
5. Installing the new system
The replacement unit is installed and connected according to its requirements.
6. Testing the system
The system is checked to ensure it is operating correctly.

The exact installation process will depend on the type of hot water system being installed and the existing setup at your property.
Many homeowners only start thinking about replacement once their hot water system stops working completely.
Planning ahead gives you more time to compare system types, capacities and operating costs rather than choosing a replacement under pressure.
If your existing system is showing signs of age or repeated problems, it may be worth assessing your replacement options before an emergency occurs.
Frequent breakdowns, significant corrosion, leaks, poor performance and increasing repair costs can all indicate that replacement may be more practical than continued repairs.
In many cases, a heat pump can replace an existing electric storage system, but the property and installation requirements need to be assessed first.
The best replacement depends on your household size, hot water usage, available space, energy source and budget. There is no single system that is best for every home.
If the system is relatively new and the fault is minor, repair may be worthwhile. For an older system with significant damage or repeated faults, replacement may provide better long-term value.
Yes. Existing systems can be removed as part of the replacement process where applicable.
The installation time depends on the system being installed and the existing setup. Straightforward replacements can generally be completed more quickly than installations requiring modifications.
