Common problems

Sound familiar?

These are the hot water problems Perth homeowners call us about every week. Each one has a clear fix.

  • ac_unit

    Freezing showers

    Your system died overnight and the whole household is queuing for a cold shower before work.

    We carry common elements, thermostats and valves on the truck.

  • water_damage

    A leaking or burst tank

    Water pooling under the unit or running down the wall, with damage getting worse by the hour.

    Call us and isolate the water. We prioritise active leaks.

  • trending_up

    Power bills climbing

    An ageing electric storage tank quietly burns through roughly a quarter of your energy bill.

    We size heat pump and solar upgrades and apply the federal STC rebate to your quote.

  • help

    Repair or replace?

    Nobody wants to spend on a repair that fails again in six months, or replace a unit that had years left.

    We diagnose first, then give you the honest call with a written price for both options.

02 — Why choose us

The hot water team Perth calls back

John McBride started Hot Water System Perth in Rivervale with a simple idea: turn up fast, explain the options plainly, and price the job before touching a spanner. That is still how we work today, right across the metro.

  • request_quote

    Free quotes, no call-out surprises

    We quote upfront and in writing before anything starts. If a repair does not stack up against a replacement, we will tell you that too, with a price for both.

  • local_shipping

    Trucks stocked for one visit

    Elements, thermostats, PTR and tempering valves, thermocouples and common fittings travel with us. That means most faults are fixed on the first visit rather than booked in for a return trip.

  • handshake

    Every major brand covered

    Rheem, Rinnai, Dux, Bosch and Vulcan, plus Solahart, Edwards, iStore, Reclaim Energy and Sanden for solar and heat pump. You are not stuck waiting on a brand specialist.

  • savings

    Rebates handled

    We process the federal STC rebate on eligible heat pump and solar systems so it comes off your quote at point of sale.

No mystery pricing and no repeat visits for parts we should have brought the first time.

    We diagnose on site

    A plumber checks the unit, valves, element or burner and finds the actual fault instead of guessing.

    Repair or replace, we quote both where it matters. Nothing starts until you have approved the price.

  4. 04 task_alt

    Fixed and certified
