Choosing the System and the Spot
Four things decide what goes in and where it lands:
Size to the taps that actually run
A unit matched to real use costs less to run than one sized for a household you do not have.
The spot decides a lot
A heat pump needs open airflow and distance from bedroom windows, while solar collectors want roof direction and no shade.
Tight spots suit continuous flow
A wall-mounted unit frees the floor a tank eats, though its flow rate caps how many showers run at once.
Gas where a supply exists
A gas system needs a service at the property, and LPG bottles are the fallback where there is none.
How We Run the Install
A new install runs in four stages:
- 1
Check the site and pick the unit
We visit, measure the space, confirm the gas or electrical supply and talk through storage versus continuous flow against your roof, your block and your household.
- 2
Set the figure
The quote covers the unit, the changeover and any base or valve work, and nothing is ordered until you approve it.
- 3
Fit and connect
Water and power are isolated, an old unit comes out if one is there, and the new system goes in with its isolation and tempering valves, plus a flue or relief drain as the type demands.
- 4
Fill, heat and check
We fill the system, check that the thermostat holds stored water at 60°C, test the valves under working pressure and walk you through the controls before we leave.

Pricing a New Installation
Four drivers shape most install quotes:
The system type
Heat pump and solar options cost more up front than a basic electric tank, and gas adds its own connection work.
The spot
A unit going under a house, down a terrace or onto a cut pad takes longer than one dropping onto a ready slab.
The connection
Gas lines, a heavy supply for instant electric units, or renewed pipework where old branches have narrowed.
Valves and extras
A tempering valve, a new relief drain route or a booster for a solar setup.
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 for Red Hill Cottages
Ground first
Much of the suburb sits on rock and red subsoil, and the steep slopes mean a ground-level tank sometimes needs a cut pad or a stepped base before the unit goes down. Local Red Hill Hot Water folds that ground work into the figure before anything is ordered.
Local uptake
The postcode area already records 302 solar and 262 heat pump hot water installs, so neither option is an experiment in these streets.
Renovation timing
Cottages restored across the decades often gained their tanks during refits, and a new renovation is the clean moment to resize, re-site or switch system types while other trades are already on site.
Not the Right Call For
An instant electric system draws a heavy dedicated supply, so any new circuit or switchboard change is an electrician's job rather than ours. Everything on the water and gas side of your install stays with Local Red Hill Hot Water.
Frequently Asked Questions
Call (07) 3523 7167Where can a new tank go on a steep Red Hill block?
Cut-in sites often leave one workable spot, so we size the unit to the terrace it will stand on and confirm the base, drainage and access before the quote is written.
Can you run gas lines for a new gas system?
Yes, connecting a gas hot water system is licensed gas work, which we hold alongside our plumbing licence, so a gas storage or continuous flow heater stays with one crew.
Does Energex need to approve a new electric connection?
A standard electric tank connects to the supply already at the house, but a new circuit, such as one feeding an instant electric unit, is a call for an electrician to make.
Does a Brisbane City Council overlay affect where a new unit goes?
Character overlays cover much of the housing, so a new unit usually stays near the old position, and we confirm what the council rules allow on the site visit before quoting.
What size system suits a Red Hill household?
Census figures put the average household at 2.4 people, so a compact storage tank or a wall-mounted flow heater covers the taps without paying to heat water that nobody uses.
