Hot Water Safety Check & Test

Did You Know?

Your hot water system may be your highest energy user?

Neglecting its maintenance can lead to unexpected breakdowns, high utility bills, and potential safety hazards. At Sharpe Trade Services, we provide comprehensive safety checks and performance tests for all types of hot water units, ensuring your system runs reliably year-round.

Why Book a Safety Check?

Identifying minor issues early can prevent them from turning into costly emergencies. Watch for these warning signs:

• Whiff of Gas: A faint smell of gas near your unit may indicate a leak.
• Rust Alerts: Rust on the tank or manifold can signal serious issues like a split tank.
• Leaking Valves: Water dripping from the pressure relief valve can lead to significant damage if ignored.
• High Bills: Inefficient systems or hidden leaks can cause a sudden spike in your energy or water bills.

Comprehensive Inspection for All Systems

Whether you have a Gas, Electric, Solar, or Heat Pump system, our accredited technicians perform a detailed 20+ point safety check:

• Pressure Relief Valve: Test operation and condition to prevent tank over-pressurisation.
• Gas Supply & Flow: Check the gas line and test flow/efficiency for gas-powered units.
• Leak Inspection: Detailed check of hot water pipework for condition and leaks.
• Performance Testing: Assess flow rates, temperature accuracy, and overall energy efficiency.
• Structural Condition: Assess the physical condition of the tank or wall unit for corrosion or wear.
• Component Efficiency: Test heating elements or gas burners for optimal performance.
• Isolation Valve: Test operation and condition to ensure you can safely shut off the system if needed.
