Changover switch for hot water heater (electrical, not plumbing)

$260

Melbourne VIC 3004, Australia

25th Jun 2026

Current electrical hot water heater only heats at 11 pm and runs out of hot water by evening. Need to install a changeover switch to set the heating to day or night. May need to replace the existing circuit breaker to a RCBO. Hot water heater is in ceiling through crawl space. Apartment building also has mains panel in basement. From the building superintendent: "The 20amp switch is for your hot water. The 63amp switch is for everything else. The 20amp switch is programmed to only work between 11pm and 6am when the electricity is cheap. You need to bypass the 20amp switch so that it goes through the 63amp switch."

Plumber Needed: Install Backup Water Heater (Officer, VIC)

$750

Officer South VIC, Australia

21st Jun 2026

Looking for a licensed plumber to quote and install a backup hot water system at a residential property in Officer. Our brand new 246L Haier heat pump runs out of hot water during consecutive evening showers. We have an existing natural gas line on-site (used for cooking). I plan to supply the appliance myself. But I need you to quote for labor and all installation materials (pipes, fittings, valves, etc.). Please provide pricing/feasibility for these two options: Option 1 (Preferred): Install an instantaneous gas water heater as a secondary, manually switched backup unit. Note: Please confirm if this specific configuration complies with current Victorian gas/plumbing regulations. Option 2: Install a second, smaller capacity heat pump water heater alongside the existing unit. Requirements: Must be a licensed and insured plumber/gasfitter in Victoria. Must provide a Compliance Certificate upon completion.

PTR valve replacement on water heater

$800

Bulla VIC 3428, Australia

21st Jan 2026

I’m looking to book a plumber to inspect our hot water system. We have a Chromagen Midea hybrid heat pump hot water system and it has started regularly discharging water from the pressure & temperature relief (PTR) valve outlet pipe. This began shortly after Western Water shut off and restored mains supply in town due to burst water mains, so I’m concerned there may be an issue with water pressure, the PTR valve, or pressure/expansion control valves. Could you please: • Check incoming mains pressure • Inspect the PTR valve • Check whether a pressure limiting valve and expansion control valve are installed and operating correctly • Replace any faulty pressure control components as required Please let me know availability and an estimated cost range.

Was prompt and had great communication. Made sure to explain everything. Would highly recommend.
