Hot Water Around Bartleys Hill
One cylinder, every bathroom
The bulk of Ascot's homes are interwar Queenslanders on roomy blocks, and plenty have gained bathrooms through later extensions. Where one storage cylinder feeds them all, a failed tank leaves the whole house without hot water.
Old steel behind the plaster
Mains water reached this hill back in 1907, when a service reservoir opened on Bartleys Hill, and the first homes here were piped in galvanised steel. Extensions that keep old steel runs inside the walls can starve a new ensuite of flow or tint the water brown.
Flats stacked near the station
At the last census, flats and apartments made up 47.8 per cent of homes, much of it in the unit blocks that cluster around Lancaster Road. The average household counted just 2.3 people, so a modest cylinder suits many places, and Hendra Hot Water Services sizes the tank to the household, not the suburb average. Postcode records also list 236 heat pump and 222 solar hot water installs.
The Jobs We Take On
Hendra Hot Water Services sorts the local work onto six pages, each with a reason behind it:
Hot water repairs
pilots, thermocouples and valves on the older gas and electric units around the hill streets.
No hot water
the safe checks and the likely causes when the taps run cold on a winter morning.
Hot water replacement
a re-sized cylinder for an extended family home, rather than a straight swap of the old size.
Hot water installation
a fresh unit where a renovation adds a bathroom or a property changes hands.
Gas hot water
storage that reheats quickly when several bathrooms draw at once.
Heat pump hot water
a compressor and fan that need clear outdoor air, sited away from bedroom windows.
Frequently Asked Questions
Call (07) 3523 1856Do galvanised pipes in Ascot's interwar homes complicate a tank swap?
They can, because corroded steel lines cut flow and tint the water at newer taps, so Hendra Hot Water Services checks the old supply before quoting any cylinder changeover on these hill streets.
Can storm run-off from the Bartleys Hill slopes reach an outdoor hot water tank?
It can during a heavy downpour, because Council maps overland flow across scattered streets below the hill, so we site any outdoor tank clear of yard gullies and downpipe connections.
Does an Energex off-peak tariff carry over to a replacement tank in Ascot?
It can, because an off-peak circuit heats the tank overnight at a lower rate, so we confirm the supply details with Energex before the new cylinder goes in and the old tariff is lost.
Are rebates available on heat pump or solar hot water systems here?
Yes, and we will run through the heat pump and solar rebates on offer at the moment, since what your home qualifies for depends on the system and the roof.
Who looks after hot water in the unit blocks around Lancaster Road?
It depends on the building, because some blocks share one cylinder while others give every unit its own, so we sort out which applies, and the body corporate, at the quote.
