Hot water systems usually go unnoticed until something goes wrong. Before your hot water unit breaks down, there are some signs to be aware of when your water heater needs to be repaired of replaced!
Signs Your Water Heater Needs to be Repaired or Replaced

Age - A typical water heater system should be active for about 8-12 years; this is mainly dependent on its maintenance. (annual service is recommended). The age of your water heater system will help you to estimate when to replace it. Do not wait until it completely goes on a breakdown. Replace it if it's starting to creep up to those years.

Leaking -  If your water heating system is leaking, this suggests an issue. Evident leakage coming from the water heater, or water around the device, then these are signs that it requires attention immediately. A leaking tank may require a full replacement.

Water temperature - A thermostat will regulate the temperature of water from the heater. A typical working hot water heater will deliver hot water depending on how the thermostat is set. If the unit changes the temperature of water from hot to cold, or even hotter, it is not running the right way. If this happens, try to adjust the thermostat; if no change occurs, the system needs a plumber to look at it. 

Rust - Rusting and corrosion is a common thing in hot water tanks. This is usually a sign that your system’s lifespan is almost over.

Noise - After a time, the water heating unit might start making some noise, especially when operating it’s time to call Inspired Plumbing!

Faulty drain valve - Water system tank will collect sediments and silt with time. The sediments may break into the tank’s interior, making the drain valve blocked. This prevents the water from flowing out.

Lastly,  If the number of people in the house increases, it means that the hot water system will not work efficiently. The size of your water heating unit needs to be the right size for your household.

    Most Frequently Asked Questions

    You Have A Pipe That Is Leaking Or Has Burst
    If a pipe bursts, before calling an after hours plumber, make sure you immediately move anything of value in the water’s path to a higher floor, garage, or out into the garden. If it’s minor, locate the leak and wrap it with rags or duct tape. Place a bucket underneath. Then call us.
    Your Kitchen Sink Drain Is Backed Up
    You’ve probably already tried using a plunger or auger to pull out the clog. So, it’s time to call our after hours plumber service. While you wait for us, please resist the urge to use a corrosive drain opener, as they are toxic and can actually make the problem worse. Hang in there and we’ll be there soon!
    Your Water Heater Only Puts Out Cold Water
    This is a classic ‘call-a-plumber’ job – you don’t want to take this one on yourself. There are some DIY things you can do with your water heater as routine maintenance.

    However, getting too involved with this appliance can expose you to natural gas or electricity - either of which can be deadly. Not to mention the risk of an exploding hot water heater. It’s not worth it, simply call us and a licensed and experience plumber will be there before you know it!
    There’s No Water In Your Home
    A no-water situation probably could be caused by the municipal water line to your home (or your well, if you have one). Call us as we might already know of any water outages in your area. If we don’t know of one, we’ll call Sydney water whilst we’re on the way. You can rest easy knowing as soon as you’ve put the phone down, we’re sending an emergency plumber to help you.
    Your Toilet Is Blocked And Starting To Overflow
    Try to pull out the clog with a plunger. If this doesn’t work, though, call us. You probably need a professional to deal with this messy business. We’re familiar with the hidden places where toilet clogs build, and we’ve got the equipment to have it cleared in a jiffy.
    You Have A Leaky Water Heater
    If your water heater has a leaky valve, you could be wasting a lot of money on water heating when all that’s needed is a replacement valve. If corrosion has damaged the water heater wall, though, it might be time for a replacement. A leak can cause property damage, so, as soon as you notice it, call us, your emergency plumber, ASAP. We’ll fix the problem, whatever it takes!

    Claude and Larry did a great job replacing our tempering valve and troublesome pipework that was leaking under the house. We also had them service the gas hot water and install some tapware at short notice. I highly recommend Inspired Plumbing for their honest pricing and professional workmanship.

    I contacted Inspired Plumbing to help with an urgent blocked drain situation. Claude was so professional and hard working, he spent 6 hours working on the drains and checked in to provide updates frequently. He cleaned everything up to new and found the root cause of the problem and explained it in an easy to understand manner. I would recommend Inspired Plumbing as they are so professional and good at what they do!
    Response from the owner: Thank you for your wonderful 5 star review Elina, and for recommending Inspired Plumbing!

    I felt confident & relief from the first moment I spoke to the Office. As soon as I shared that the leak in our garden was causing us to turn off the water mains our job was prioritised. Xavier came off a site & arrived a couple of hours later.There was no call out fee & charges were discussed as well as the problem. I can’t comment on the quote because I had already tried other plumbers and for various reasons couldn’t get any timely response.I would highly recommend Inspired Plumbing.
    Response from the owner: Hi Susan,Thanks so much for your 5-star review! We really appreciate your kind words and feedback - our customers satisfaction is our number 1 priority so we are so happy to hear you had a great experience with our team.

    Xavier and his team saved me thousands of dollars today by doing a relining. Another plumbing company gave me a shocking quote to replace my cracked and misaligned storm water pipe. These guys did it for a quarter of that price, plus no digging /excavating. They certainly know what they are doing.
    Response from the owner: Thank you for your great review! We're so glad to hear that Xavier and the team were able to provide you with a cost-effective solution and that you were satisfied with the work they performed. Providing our customers with the best service and value is our top priority, and it's great to know that we were able to meet your needs. Thank you for choosing us.

    I hired another plumbing company who blotched a new toilet installation and was so over priced. I spoke to Volkan from Todays Gas Heater Service (whom I have used successfully) and they are also plumbers. He went above and beyond with helping me with this other shoddy plumbing company then very successfully re-installed my toilet to my satisfaction. These two companies and their employees are the very best I have ever had and will always use them when necessary. Thank you again Volkan.
    Response from the owner: Thank you for taking the time to share your positive experience. We are thrilled to hear that Volkan was able to assist you and provide a successful toilet re-installation. We appreciate your trust in us and look forward to serving you in the future.
