The Cold Shower Problem
A dead hot water system always picks the worst time
It's never convenient. The unit packs it in on a freezing morning, there's a puddle in the garage, or the hot water just runs out halfway through the family's showers. Then you're stuck guessing: can it be repaired, or is it time to replace?
Get it wrong and you either throw money at a unit that's on its last legs, or replace something that only needed a part. We take the guesswork out, diagnose the real fault on site, and give you straight advice with a fixed price before any work starts. Most repairs are sorted same day, and we carry common replacement units on the van.

Why Townend For Hot Water

Three reasons Perth Hills locals call us first when the hot water goes.

Same-day replacements
We stock the most common gas and electric units on the van, so a failed system can often be swapped the same day, not next week.

No upselling. If a part fixes it, we fix the part. If it's cheaper to replace, we'll tell you why and show you the numbers.

Hot water FAQs
The questions Perth Hills locals ask us most about hot water systems.
Should I repair or replace my hot water system?
As a rough guide, if your system is under 8 to 10 years old and the fault is a single part, a repair usually makes sense. Older units that fail repeatedly or have a leaking tank are normally better replaced. We diagnose on site and give you honest advice plus a fixed price either way, so you can make the call with full information.
How fast can you get hot water back on?
Most repairs are completed in a single visit, and because we carry common gas and electric units on the van, a full replacement can often be done the same day. Call us early and we'll do our best to have hot water flowing again before the day is out.
Which brands and types do you work on?
All of them. Gas storage and continuous flow, electric, solar and heat pump systems from Rheem, Rinnai, Dux, Aquamax, Vulcan, Bosch and more. We supply, install and certify, and we're happy to recommend the best fit for your household and budget.
Are you licensed to do gas and electric hot water work?
Yes. We're fully licensed plumbers and gas fitters and insured for all hot water work. Every gas installation is certified and you'll receive the required compliance paperwork on completion.
Can switching to solar or heat pump really save money?
For many Perth Hills households, yes. Heat pump and solar systems use a fraction of the energy of standard electric units, and government rebates can significantly reduce the upfront cost. We'll walk you through the options, the likely savings and any rebates you qualify for before you commit.
