Hot Water System Element Replacement
The Challenge
The homeowner's electric hot water system in Centenary Heights stopped heating. The 250L tank was only 6 years old, so replacing the entire unit didn't make sense. The water was lukewarm at best, even after resetting the safety switch.
Our Solution
Glenn tested the heating elements and found the lower element had failed. He replaced both upper and lower elements and the thermostat as a preventative measure, then tested the safety valve and all electrical connections.
The Outcome
Hot water was fully restored within two hours. By replacing both elements and the thermostat together, the homeowner avoided a likely return visit when the upper element failed — which Glenn estimated would happen within months given its condition.
