Common issues include malfunctioning pressure relief valves, leaks, sediment build-up, and gas emissions. While some issues can be resolved with repairs, others may require replacing the unit.

Gas heater servicing
It’s easy to take a reliable hot water supply for granted until it’s gone. To ensure your gas hot water heater enjoys a long, trouble-free life, regular servicing is essential.
Experts generally recommend servicing gas appliances at least every two years, or more frequently depending on the appliance, to maintain optimal efficiency, reliability, and safety. Gas water heaters are no exception to this rule.
To avoid unexpected cold showers, have your water heater maintained by professionals.
Hot water conversions
Gas systems are more energy-efficient and cost-effective in the long run than an electric hot water system. They also tend to occupy less space. Many of our clients choose to switch when it’s time to replace their old electric water heater, opting for a new gas system instead.
We offer gas hot water conversions throughout the Wellington region. If you’re considering replacing your electric cylinder with a gas-powered one, contact our team to discuss your options. We can supply and install high-quality gas hot water systems to replace your existing unit.
