Signs Your Solar Hot Water System Needs Attention

Look out for the following signs that your system may require repair or replacement:

• No Hot Water – A complete lack of hot water often indicates a system or component failure.

• Inconsistent Temperature – If your water runs hot then cold, the thermostat or heating element could be faulty.

• Water Discolouration – Rusty or cloudy water may suggest corrosion or sediment inside the tank.

• Unusual Noises – Banging, gurgling, or popping sounds usually indicate mineral build-up.

• Leaking Tank or Pipes – Visible leaks or pooling water are serious signs of failure.

• High Energy Bills – Older or faulty systems are less efficient and cost more to run.

• System Age (10+ Years) – Most hot water systems over 10 years old should be assessed for replacement.
