Hot Water on the Old Tram-Era Blocks
A century of tanks on one street
Streets cut through when the tram pushed out to Kedron Park in 1915, and again with the Glen Kedron estate two years later, hold cylinders swapped at very different times. The oldest rust through at the base, where the under-house air stays wet.
Old steel lines still in service
Houses connected to the mains back when these estates were first sold can still carry their original galvanised pipework, which furs up inside over the decades, so the first tapful runs rusty and the furthest taps trickle.
Flats changing the mix
At the last census, separate houses sat at 59.9 per cent of dwellings with flats and apartments at 30.0 per cent, so compact one-per-dwelling units now sit beside big household tanks on the same blocks.
Flood edges to watch
Council's February 2022 flood mapping touches the brook frontage near Mercer Park, so ground-level laundries on that edge deserve a valve check after a rise.
Local Wooloowin Hot Water handles the lot, from a weeping cylinder under a raised house to a compact unit in a newer flat.
Hot Water Help Across the Suburb
Whatever the system is doing, Local Wooloowin Hot Water starts the job the same way:
- Hot water repairs for elements, thermostats and relief valves on tanks aging at different rates across the tram-era streets
- No hot water checks when a cold morning leaves the shower useless and the cause is not obvious
- Hot water replacement when rust wins and an honest new tank beats another patch
- Hot water installation for renovations and the newer flat builds going up around the suburb
- Electric hot water storage tanks, many charging overnight on off-peak power
- Heat pump hot water units, a type already proven on local roofs
Frequently Asked Questions
Call (07) 3523 7158Do the raised houses near Gympie Road need their tanks checked under the floor?
Often, because the oldest cylinders sit in the damp undercroft and corrode from the bottom edge up, so we look under the house before anything else when one that old starts weeping.
Does a flood near Mercer Park mean a tank needs retesting?
It can, because creek water leaves silt behind in valves, so after the brook rises we test the relief and tempering valves before trusting a cylinder that sat low through it.
Have many solar systems gone into Kedron?
Yes, the postcode's install record lists 514 solar hot water units alongside 378 heat pumps, so both types already run on nearby roofs, and we can talk you through the rebates on offer.
Do the old galvanised pipes on the tram-era streets affect a new system?
They can, because steel lines fur up inside and starve a new unit, so we test pressure and flow at several taps first and price any pipe work into the quote.
Who do I call about a gas smell near Gympie Road?
Turn the gas off at the meter and call the gas distributor's emergency number before anything else, never relight the unit, then ring us once it is safe and we will check the pilot.
