Hot Water You Can Count On—Every Time You Turn the Tap

There’s nothing like stepping into a warm shower after a long day—until your hot water runs out halfway through. Or worse, your system suddenly gives up just as you host guests. We’ve seen everything, from rusty tanks to tripped circuits and thermostat failures.

Aussie Home Services has helped thousands of Sydney homes get their hot water back fast with reliable, affordable, and efficient electric hot water systems. Whether your current system is beyond repair or you’re ready to upgrade to something better, our team is ready to help.

Want to explore all your options? We also install gas, solar, and hybrid systems—check out our full range of water heating solutions to find the best fit for your home.

Why Choose Electric Hot Water?

Electric systems are a popular choice for Sydney homes—and for good reason. They’re reliable, straightforward to install, and ideal for properties without access to gas. Whether you’re after a compact unit for an apartment or a large storage system for a busy family, we’ll help you choose the right size and setup.

We install instantaneous electric systems (for on-demand heating) and storage tanks (perfect for households with peak-time use). Whatever your preference, our expert technicians will guide you through the selection, ensuring your system meets your hot water needs now and in the future.

Are you thinking of switching from gas to electric? We can help assess your current setup, remove the old system, and safely install your new one.

We Don’t Just Install—We Future-Proof

A water heater is an investment, and we ensure that yours is reliable. Every job starts with a proper assessment of your home layout, usage needs, energy goals, and budget.

Here’s what our team handles daily:

New Electric Hot Water Installations

Are you building, renovating, or replacing a gas system? We’ll handle everything—from electrical connections to plumbing integration—safely and efficiently.

System Replacements

If your current electric hot water system is struggling or outdated, we recommend a high-efficiency replacement that suits your home and water usage.

Electric Hot Water Repairs

Tripping the breaker? No hot water at all? Our electricians and plumbers work together to deliver quick and affordable water heater repairs that get your hot water flowing again.

Scheduled Servicing

Like any appliance, electric hot water systems benefit from regular servicing. We’ll check heating elements, thermostats, pressure valves, and electrical components to extend the life of your system.

Brands We Know and Trust

We only work with systems with strict Australian standards and proven performance.

Our team installs and services top brands, including:

Rheem – Reliable performance with strong local support
Stiebel Eltron – Sleek, German-engineered efficiency
Thermann – Smart design and affordability
Dux – Time-tested Australian brand
Rinnai – Innovation and energy savings in one

If you have a preferred brand or an existing unit you want to replace, we’re happy to work with what’s right for you.

Common Electric Hot Water Issues (and how we help)

“Why is my water taking so long to heat up?” Electric systems can be slower than gas, especially if your heating element is aging or the thermostat isn’t set correctly. A quick inspection can pinpoint the issue.

“Is it expensive to run an electric system?” Electric units can be cost-effective, especially when paired with off-peak tariffs. We can also recommend energy-efficient electric systems to help reduce ongoing bills.

“Can I switch from gas to electric?” Absolutely. We’ll assess your home’s wiring and hot water needs and provide a safe, compliant electric hot water installation—plus help decommission your old gas system.

“Do electric systems need regular servicing?” Yes. Checking the heating element, thermostat, and sacrificial anode helps prevent breakdowns and improves efficiency. We recommend a service every 2–3 years.

“Can you install an electric water heater in a unit or apartment?” Yes, and we’ll ensure it complies with strata regulations, local council guidelines, and spatial requirements.

  I had a great experience with Aussie Services, especially with Luke, who came out to fix a blocked drain at my property.

Luke was extremely professional, friendly and approachable. He took the time to explain the cause of the blockage, clearly explained what needed to be done, and resolved the issue efficiently.

I really appreciated his knowledge, honesty and willingness to help. It's refreshing to deal with someone who genuinely takes pride in their work and provides excellent customer service.

Highly recommend Luke and Aussie Services. I'll definitely use their services again in the future!

  Very happy with the plumbing work done by Luke and his team. It was a big job but it was carried out with minimal disruption to the household, and the yard. Luke was always good in explaining how the job was progressing, and importantly when we had windows of opportunity to use the sewerage system during the day. They finished the job in a timely manner, and cleaned up afterwards. Happy to recommend this company.

  Called and booked for Monday, given between 8 and 12pm for a possible gas leak.  Chris showed up 1 minute after he called as he was just around the corner. Chris was polite, informative and professional. Checked all my appliances, one by one and the main  meter.  Lucky there was no leak and it was a billing issue. Better to be safe than sorry.  Also as a first time customer received a discount which was nice as I saw on line if you mention it they knock it off the total price. Zero call out fee and all work quoted up front fixed price.
Would highly recommend Aussie Home Services. Its hard yo find great trades these days and Chris fits the bill! Thank you.

  We called out Aussie after hours on a long weekend on Grand Final night as we had no power. Not only did they answer, (a real person as well) they sent a level 2 electrician (Paul was highly skilled, extremely professional and a nice person to boot) out who fixed what was a serious issue, all I a few hours.. bravo all round
