Burleigh Waters Solar Hot Water — Find the Fault, Fix It Right

Lukewarm showers, tripping boosters, mystery drips around the tank — none of it’s welcome. Todd’s Plumbing & Electrical repairs solar hot water systems across Burleigh Waters every week, from Christine Ave to the canals near Swan Lake and the estates off Bermuda St. Same-day help is often possible.

Same day service at no extra cost (conditions apply)

40-Second “Fix or Replace?” Answer

  • Repair when the cylinder’s sound: pumps, valves, sensors, controllers and boosters are routine.

  • Replace when the tank body’s corroded or failures keep repeating; we’ll size a smart solar or heat-pump option and handle supply, install and disposal.

Field notes: why systems in Burleigh Waters fail

Low-pitch tiled roofs, canal breezes and summer downpours make a familiar pattern:

  • Heat not moving — collectors run hot but the tank doesn’t: airlocks, tired circulation pumps or blocked returns.

  • Dozy boosters — elements/relays don’t engage after cloudy runs or timers are out of whack.

  • Sensors that lie — roof probes drift, controllers think storage is warm when it’s not.

  • Valve weeps — tempering/relief valves stain the slab; looks like a dead tank but often isn’t.

  • Collector headaches — perished insulation, cracked glazing, shaded sections near established palms.

We’re set up for safe roof access on two-storeys, narrow side paths and canal-front blocks.

Typical Burleigh Job

Near Swan Lake: Family noticed “warm then cold” showers each morning. Pump short-cycling; controller reading 15 °C low. We replaced the roof sensor, bled the loop, reset booster program. Result: steady 60 °C storage; booster only on truly overcast nights.

Rave Reviews

Burleigh Waters FAQ — short and useful

Can you attend today?

Often yes — morning calls help. If a specialty part is needed, we can fit a temporary unit so you’re never without hot water.

Why are mornings lukewarm after cloudy weather?

Either the booster didn’t engage, the pump isn’t moving heat from the roof, or the sensor is feeding the controller bad data. We test all three before replacing anything.

There’s a rust mark under the tank — is it done?

Not always. A weeping relief valve can mimic a failed cylinder. If the tank is perforated, replacement’s safer — we’ll show you proof either way.

Do you handle strata and canal-front access?

Yes. We book access if needed, protect surfaces, and provide photo notes for managers/insurers.

Can you supply and install a new system?

Absolutely. We’ll size solar or heat-pump to your usage and roof, install it, and remove the old unit.

If it can't be fixed we can supply a new system from as little as $24 a week
