A real person answers, day or night
The simple and reliable choice when no gas line reaches the street
Electric storage runs almost anywhere power reaches, pairs with off-peak power to hold costs down, and suits houses and units alike. Ring (02) 9072 0592 and we size one to your daily draw.
Where electric leads across the suburb
Not every street here carries gas, and plenty of homes never had a connection, so electric storage has long been the natural fit across much of the suburb.

What an electric hot water job covers
An electric system is only as good as its sizing and its safe connection, and fitting one properly runs from the tank out to the tap:
Electric storage tanks
An electric storage unit heats a full tank on a single heating element and holds it ready for the day's draw, which makes it the low-fuss choice for any home or unit that has no gas to fall back on.
Right-sizing the tank
Since electric reheating is slower than a gas burner, correct sizing matters all the more, so we match the capacity to how many showers and outlets a household runs before the tank has any chance to recover between peaks.
Off-peak running
When the supply permits, we shift the tank to off-peak billing so it heats mostly overnight on the lower rate, trimming the ongoing bill while still holding a full tank ready for the morning rush.
Safe delivery set
Every electric unit we fit carries a tempering valve set on commissioning, so water arrives at every tap at a safe, even temperature rather than being stored and then delivered hot enough to scald someone in the home.
Keeping an electric tank efficient and long-lived
An electric storage tank rewards a little attention, and looked after it serves a household quietly for many years past the average.

Common electric hot water issues
A few recurring complaints point to sizing or running-cost causes rather than a spent tank, and each has a clear answer.
Slow to recover
When an electric tank takes a long time to reheat after a busy stretch, it is often simply undersized for the household, and stepping up to a correctly rated capacity restores hot water in time for the next demand.
Climbing running cost
A tank quietly heating on peak rates instead of off-peak, or labouring around a thick layer of scale, both lift the bill, so checking the tariff and flushing sediment usually settles the cost back down again.
Why sizing and setup matter
Getting an electric system rated and connected properly shapes both comfort and cost for years, and doing it right protects three things at once:
Enough hot water to go round
A safe temperature at every tap
A running cost you control

Your electric system, step by step
- 01

Ring (02) 9072 0592 and describe what's happening, and a licensed plumber, not an answering machine, will tell you what it likely means, what to stop using, and when we can realistically be there.

Quote before work
Your plumber inspects the job properly, runs whatever diagnosis it genuinely needs, and hands you a single fixed written price covering the complete fix, with a $0 call out fee and nothing added afterwards.
- 03
Fit and commission
We position and mount the tank, make the water and power connections to a licensed standard, set the off-peak arrangement where it applies, then fit the tempering valve and bring the system up to a tested, safe delivery.

Backed for life
Everything we complete is covered by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, the promise that outlasts the job itself: if it's not right, we come back. No questions. No cost.
Why choose Your Plumber Mortdale
An electric system should just quietly work for the next decade, and the standard it is fitted to shapes whether it does far more than the brand on the tank.
Fixed prices, kept
Every job is priced upfront in plain writing before any work starts, the invoice always matches that number, and weekend or late-evening timing changes nothing, because overtime rates simply don't exist here.
Licensed and insured
Your Plumber Mortdale works under licence #275278C with full insurance behind every job, and the compliance certificates that protect your home's paperwork trail arrive with the invoice, without you ever needing to ask for them.
Lifetime Labour Warranty
Workmanship here is guaranteed for life under our Lifetime Labour Warranty rather than for a warranty card's fine-print window, which says more about how the work is done in the first place than any advertisement could.
Genuinely local response
We work these streets constantly rather than commuting in from across Sydney, so the van reaching you has usually just left a job nearby, stocked for the faults the local houses actually develop.
Where we work
Areas we service
Electric tanks are rated and fitted to the same standard in Allawah, Penshurst, Oatley, Hurstville and Peakhurst, so a house or unit with no gas still gains a right-sized system, an off-peak arrangement and safe tempered water throughout.
Good questions, straight answers
Electric hot water questions Mortdale locals ask
Is electric hot water a good choice if my home has no gas?
Yes, an electric storage tank is the dependable answer where no gas reaches the block, needing no flue or combustion clearances, so it fits homes and units that only carry water and power.
Can an electric system run on an off-peak tariff?
Yes, where the supply allows we place it on the off-peak rate so heating happens mainly overnight, which trims the running cost while a full tank still waits ready by morning.
How big an electric tank do I need?
It hinges on how many in the home shower at once, and since an electric tank reheats slowly we size it to your genuine peak so nobody meets cold water between showers.
Why does my electric hot water cost more to run lately?
A tank heating on peak rates rather than off-peak, or one working around heavy internal scale, both push the cost up, so reviewing the billing rate and clearing the scale usually brings it down.
Do you fit a tempering valve on electric systems?
Yes, every electric system leaves with a tempering valve set, so water reaches the taps safely tempered instead of arriving hot enough to scald anyone.
How long does an electric storage tank last?
Cared for, an electric tank commonly serves well over a decade, and checking the sacrificial anode partway through its life is the single best way to stretch those years further.
