Sizing the System to the House
Four questions settle what goes in:
Who lives there
Census figures had four-bedroom homes at 47.6 per cent of dwellings, which is a lot of big family houses, so an undersized tank punishes itself on the first simultaneous shower.
Which outlets run together
Two bathrooms and a kitchen drawing at once need a bigger tank, or a continuous flow unit matched to that load rather than to head count.
What energy the house carries
A gas line already at the meter keeps gas storage and gas instantaneous both on the table; without one, it is electric storage, a heat pump or solar.
Where the unit can physically stand
Ground level, airflow and clearance decide this before preference does, especially where the yard falls away hard.
How a New Install Runs
Four numbered steps carry the job from bare wall to running water, and Bardon Same Day Hot Water keeps them in that order:
- 1
Walk the site and quote
We look over the position, the pipe route and the base, then put the complete figure in writing for your approval before anything starts.
- 2
Set the unit
The tank or flow unit lands on a levelled pad or a framed mounting, with a fresh cold supply line and an isolation valve brought to it.
- 3
Fit the valves and connections
Relief and tempering valves are new from day one, the tank water is kept at 60°C while a tempering valve brings the shower water back to 50°C, then a flue goes on for gas or the supply path is set for electric.
- 4
Fill it and prove it
The system is filled and bled, every joint gets checked, and hot water runs at a tap before we walk you through the controls.

What Moves the Figure on a New Install
Handling and access,
because a unit landing beside a raised timber floor on a falling yard takes more muscle than one set near the boundary on level ground.
The energy connection,
since running a new gas line, regulator and flue costs more than tying into power already close by.
Ground works,
as a level base cut into shallow rock takes longer to build than one sunk into soft garden soil.
Valves fitted new,
with every install carrying its own relief gear and tempering valve from the first fill.
Every hot water job is quoted as a fixed price before any work starts, and nothing goes ahead until you say yes. We keep to flat-rate pricing with no hidden fees and no surcharge for nights, weekends or public holidays. Fix now, pay later is available as well.
New Systems on Foothill Blocks
Raised timber houses shape the plan
Separate homes made up 81.2 per cent of dwellings at the last census, and the stock around here is weatherboard built between the wars and after, up on stumps. A new tank usually stands on a levelled pad near the stumps or hangs off a framed outer wall, with the run of pipe kept as short as the slope allows.
Rock sits close underfoot
Houses along the ridge, Jubilee Terrace among them, dig into thin soil over rock, so we test what the ground will let us excavate before promising a same-week pad for an outdoor unit.
Proven tech already has runs on the board
The postcode area shows 490 solar hot water installs and 284 heat pump installs recorded, so both technologies are well established in this part of the city. Our solar hot water and heat pump hot water pages explain what each type needs.
Not the Right Call for New Wiring
An instant electric unit draws so hard that its dedicated circuit is a job for a licensed electrician rather than us, and that is the one part of an install we cannot carry. Everything on the water side still comes to our crew, and we flag the electrical split before the quote is signed so nothing surprises you on instalment day.
Frequently Asked Questions
Call (07) 3522 5629Where can a new tank stand on a steep Bardon block?
A pad beside the stumps suits most raised houses here, so we walk the yard first and pick ground that will hold a base and keep the pipe run short.
Does a new electric tank change anything on the Energex supply?
Usually not, because a new storage unit heats on the connection the house already carries, and an instant electric draw beyond the existing wiring has to be signed off by an electrician.
Can a gas system be fitted where a Bardon house has no connection?
Yes, storage and instantaneous gas units both run happily on bottled LPG, so a Bardon house with no mains line still ends up with gas water heating ready to use.
Does storm season near Mount Coot-tha change the scheduling?
An open trench is best dug in a dry week between November and March, because heavy summer rain running off the foothills can fill a half-finished trench before the tank arrives.
Is a bigger tank always the safer choice for a family here?
The outlets that run together matter more than head count, though the census had household size at 2.8 people, so we size for the family homes that dominate these streets.
