Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an electrician for hot water system installation?
Yes. All electrical connections must be performed by a licensed electrician. Plumbers handle the water connections, electricians handle the power.
Can my switchboard handle a hot water system?
Most modern switchboards can accommodate hot water systems. Older switchboards may need upgrading. We assess this during the quote.
What is off-peak hot water?
Off-peak tariffs provide cheaper electricity during low-demand periods (usually overnight). Your hot water heats up during these times to save money.
