Currumbin Solar Hot Water Repairs — The Trusted Local Experts

Salt haze off Currumbin Alley, creek mist, and gusty afternoons can wear out solar hot water gear fast. If your system has slipped from “hot” to “only warm,” the booster naps through cool evenings, or a rusty ring’s appearing on the slab, Todd’s Plumbing & Electrical will find the fault and fix it properly. We work across Currumbin, Currumbin Waters and Currumbin Valley — from Pacific Parade and Elephant Rock to the Wildlife Sanctuary and Tomewin Mountain Rd — and we often restore hot water the same day.

Same day service at no extra cost (conditions apply)

Fast facts

  • Same-day solar hot water repairs in Currumbin (where scheduling allows)

  • One visit, two trades: licensed plumber + licensed electrician

  • We fix pumps, controllers, roof sensors, boosters, tempering/relief valves, leaks, collector flow

  • Temporary hot water units available if a specialty part’s on order

  • Clear fixed pricing up-front, with photo notes for strata/insurance

Why Currumbin systems struggle (local field notes)

  • Salt + wind: Beachfront fittings along Pacific Parade corrode early; collectors cop uplift — we check clamps, flashing and wiring, not just parts.

  • Timer drift after blips: Short outages around the highway/rail corridor leave controllers off by an hour; boosters miss the off-peak window and evenings stay lukewarm.

  • Lazy circulation: Airlocks or tired pumps on older split systems mean roof heat never reaches the tank.

  • Sensors that lie: Roof probes can read 10–20 °C off, tricking controllers into “thinking” storage is warm.

  • Valve weeps that stain: Tempering/relief valves leave rust rings on slabs near sea air — looks like a dead cylinder, often isn’t.

  • Creek microclimate: Cool creek air + shade near Thrower Dr can mask circulation faults — we instrument, not guess.

We bring roof-safe access for two-storeys and duplexes, plus tidy protection for stairwells, balconies and tight laneways.

Mini case study — near Currumbin Alley

Morning showers cycled hot → warm → cool. Controller clock was 55 mins slow; roof sensor 16 °C low; pump short-cycling; corroded unions at the collector. We replaced the probe, bled the loop, renewed the unions, corrected the program and booster window, and reset the tempering valve. Result: stable ~60 °C storage; booster only on truly overcast runs.

Three strengths our Currumbin customers value

  1. Plumber + electrician together — one visit, fewer delays.

  2. Solar accredited - Plumbers & electrician

  3. Instrumented diagnosis — we measure temps, flow and booster draw before recommending anything.

  4. Proof on completion — storage temp shown, tempering set correctly, photos left for your records.

If a specialty part’s needed, we’ll fit a temporary unit so you’re not without hot water.

What we sort today

Pumps • non-return & tempering valves • controllers & roof sensors • electric/gas boosters & elements • leaking joints & relief valves • collector/flow faults • thermostats & wiring

Quick homeowner checklist (2 minutes)

  • Snap the tank label (brand/model/size) and text it through.

  • Note any error lights/codes and whether the controller clock looks right.

  • Active leak? Close the isolation valve by the tank.

  • Power tripping? Switch off the HWS breaker until we arrive.

Repair vs replace — straight talk

If the cylinder’s sound and one component failed, repairing is best value. If the tank body’s corroded or the same fault keeps coming back, we’ll quote a sensible solar or heat-pump replacement sized to your roof, tariff and household. We handle supply, installation, disposal and warranties.

Small efficiency wins we include

We fine-tune booster timing and controller logic so solar does the heavy lifting and the booster only mops up — lower bills without cold showers.

Brands we service weekly

Currumbin FAQ — quick, useful answers

Can you attend today near the beach?

Often, yes — early calls help. If a specialty part is needed, we’ll fit a temporary unit so you’re not without hot water.

Why are evenings lukewarm after windy, cloudy days?

Typically the booster missed its window, the pump isn’t moving heat from the roof, or a roof sensor is lying to the controller. We test all three before replacing anything.

There’s a rusty ring on the slab — is the tank finished?

Not always. Relief/tempering valves can weep and stain in salt air. If the tank skin is perforated, we’ll show clear proof; otherwise it’s a targeted repair.

Do you handle duplexes, lanes and body-corp rules?

Yes. We plan parking and access, protect surfaces and provide photo notes for managers/insurers.

Can you install a replacement if mine’s beyond repair?

Can you install a replacement if mine’s beyond repair?

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