When Is It Time to Replace Your Hot Water System?

Why Choose NG Trade Solutions for Hot Water Replacement?

A hot water system replacement in Brisbane is rarely planned. Most calls come the morning the shower runs cold. These are the signs that a system is on its way out, so you can act before it fails completely.

– The system is more than 10 years old
– Rusty or discoloured hot water at the taps
– Water pooling or leaking around the tank
– Running out of hot water sooner than it used to
– Temperature swinging from hot to cold mid-shower
– Rumbling, popping or banging from the tank
– Repairs are becoming frequent or costly

Not sure whether to repair or replace? We look at the age of the system, the cost of the fix and how it is performing, then give you an honest recommendation. Straight repairs are covered by our plumbing services.

Our Replacement and Installation Process

Every hot water system replacement in Brisbane follows the same clear steps, so you know what happens next and what it will cost before we start.

Get in Touch

Call (07) 3260 2523, text 0473 131 207 or send the form below. Tell us the system type, its size and what has gone wrong, and we will book you in.

Assessment and Recommendation

We assess the old system, your household’s usage and the space, and then recommend a like-for-like swap or a better type if it will save you more.

Upfront Quote

You receive honest recommendations and clear pricing confirmed before any work begins, including supply, installation and removal of the old unit.

Removal and Installation

Licensed plumbers, gas fitters and electricians handle the whole job in-house, including the tempering valve and any gas compliance certification.

Handover and Warranty

We test the system, set the temperature, walk you through the controls and back all of the work with our guarantee and warranty for peace of mind.

One Team, All Trades

– Plumbing, gas fitting and electrical are all licensed in-house.
– No coordinating three trades for one hot water job.
– The old unit is disconnected, removed and the area left clean.

Choosing the Right Size System for Your Home

The size you need depends on the number of people in your household and your daily water usage. Too small and the last shower runs cold; too large and you pay to heat water you never use. We size every replacement around how your home actually runs.

– Household size. How many people live in the home, and whether that is likely to change.
– Peak usage. Back-to-back morning showers, baths, and appliances such as dishwashers and washing machines.
– Energy preference. Existing gas connection, solar on the roof, or an electric tariff that suits a heat pump or timer.
– Space and location. Indoor or outdoor, the footprint of the old unit, and what will fit where it stood.
– Budget. Purchase price today against running costs over the life of the system.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Solar install - 27x Aiko 490w (Gen 3) panels + GoodWe ESA Inverter
up and running for 3 months with no issues.

•	Great communications all the way through the process
•	No mucking around
•	No hard sell
•	Work was done to a very high standard (I asked the Energex installer for his opinion when we had our meter upgraded to a smart meter, and he said it looked very good) .
•	No surprises, the bill was what was quoted and on time.
•	All the government paperwork was done by the NG Trade Team.

We contacted NG Trade Solutions about a solar installation after doing some research online.
Within the week they were on site quoting for the install and we received the quote a couple of days later- which included  3 inverter options and some information on each as we were open to inverter options.
We were happy with the quote and decided to proceed.  Three weeks later we had solar installed on our roof.
The instal team were a bunch of hard working, friendly and polite young guys who looked like the really enjoyed working together and acted professionally at all times.
We also received a follow up phone call from NG to check that everything was running well – which it was.

Overall, I would highly recommend NG to anyone thinking of a Solar Install.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently had Energy Trade Solutions out to install a solar system, and I couldn't be happier with the whole experience from start to finish.

They were open to letting me suggest my own brands and happily quoted multiple solutions so I could weigh up the exact hardware combo I wanted.

On the day of the install, the crew arrived on time, were great to deal with, and clearly took a lot of pride in their work. They prioritised safety and left the site very clean.

I'd highly recommend them to anyone and will definitely be calling them back for future electrical projects.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent experience for my solar, battery and EV charger install. Excellent sales and quoting process - All via email where I provided my preferences and specifics for the house. I received a very well presented pdf proposal with a series of product options. It was very detailed and covered a few brands and price points. I followed up on the phone with some brief follow up information and was impressed with the knowledge and straight forward recommendation.
My property was still under construction and NG were very flexible with an install date. They only needed a weeks notice to confirm a date once my handover was known. A small army with three vehicles rocked up right on time the morning of the install. It was well oiled machine from that point. The crew were friendly, professional and highly efficient, keeping me up to date. I was impressed everything was installed in a day - approx 7:30am to 2pm to install 28 panels, battery, inverter and EV charger. They set everything up and provided some brief guidance on using the app.
Overall a very positive experience and happy to highly recommend.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I couldn’t be happier with the service provided by NG Trade Solutions.
From the complimentary site visit through to the installation itself everything was handled professionally and efficiently.
The admin staff was really friendly, helpful and quick to respond to any questions. The process was speedy and well organised. A special Thankyou to the boys who were so hard working, open to my questions, and really respect true of our property and neighbours. Their workmanship was impressive.
Final result looks amazing and I’m so happy. I would happily recommend this team to others!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Got referred to NG Trade Solutions through Solar Quotes and they were able to organise an on site visit that week. Quotes took a week to come through but I liked that they gave a few options ranging from low budget to premium. We decided on Aiko panels and Sigenergy inverter and battery. We couldn't be happier. The day of installation the tradesman turned up on time and everything went smoothly. I'm no expert but the installation and panels look great.

Super happy with our new setup and glad to be finally self sufficient and also the blackout protection is amazing to have.

Thank you NG Trade Solutions.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Arrived on time. Started the job immediately. Didn't ask a bunch of unrelated questions, nor engage in banter. Finished the job an hour earlier than expectations.  Demonstrated the outcome. Cleaned the site. Does not get better than that!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently had a solar battery system installed and were thoroughly impressed with the entire experience with NG Trade Solutions. They were the only solar battery company that physically came out and inspected the install site.
From the outset, Erol and the admin team were highly responsive and easy to deal with, keeping us informed every step of the way. The installation crew arrived exactly on time, worked efficiently, and maintained a clean and tidy workspace throughout the process. Their professionalism and attention to detail were evident, and they took the time to ensure everything was set up perfectly and explained clearly.
Overall, a seamless and stress-free experience with a high standard of service from start to finish.
