Urgent Hot Water Plumber & Rheem Install Kallangur, Moreton Bay

Urgent Hot Water Plumber & Rheem Install Kallangur

There’s no sinking feeling quite like discovering a puddle of water spreading out from your hot water system. It’s the one appliance you rely on every single day, and a sudden leak means a triple-threat of problems: no hot water, a potential flood to clean up, and the stress of an unexpected bill.

When your hot water fails, you can’t wait. You need a fast, reliable, and urgent hot water plumber.

This was the exact emergency a homeowner in Kallangur faced recently. Their electric hot water system had started leaking and failed completely. They called Fallon Solutions, and our team was on-site the very same day to provide a fast, honest, and professional solution.

The Problem: A Leaking Hot Water System at its End

The call-out was for a leaking hot water system—a common and serious issue. When our licensed plumber arrived (on the same day, as the customer needed a same day plumber), a quick inspection confirmed the homeowner’s fears.

This wasn’t a simple dripping valve that could be tightened. The leak was coming from the tank itself, a classic sign of a critical failure. Here’s what that means for you as a homeowner:

  • Internal Corrosion: Hot water tanks, especially older ones, corrode from the inside out. When a leak appears on the outside of the tank, it means the internal lining has been breached.
  • Beyond Repair: This kind of failure is terminal. It’s like trying to patch a hole in a wet cardboard box—it simply can’t be fixed safely or reliably.
  • The Risk: An old, leaking tank is not just unreliable; it’s a flood risk. It can burst at any moment, flooding your laundry, garage, or home.

Our technician, Dan, confirmed the unit was beyond repair and that a replacement was the only safe, long-term solution.

The Solution: A Fast, Honest, and Professional Replacement

We know that being told you need a full replacement is stressful. That’s why our priority is to be “helpful and informative,” not to apply sales pressure.

Our technician Dan walked the homeowner through the situation and presented a range of high-quality replacement options tailored to their household size, energy needs, and budget.

The homeowner chose to proceed with a brand new Rheem Stellar 250-litre electric hot water system. This is an excellent choice, known for its outstanding durability, performance, and energy efficiency.

Our team returned to complete the full installation, which involved much more than just swapping the two units. A professional, compliant installation includes:

  • Safe Removal: We safely isolated the power and water, drained the old, leaking unit, and removed it from the property.
  • A Solid Foundation: We installed a new aerated concrete base. This is a critical step that many installers skip. This new slab provides a stable, level, and moisture-resistant platform, protecting the base of the new tank from ground-level moisture and preventing premature rust.
  • Full Compliance Upgrade: We installed all-new associated valves and pipework. Plumbing standards are constantly updated for safety. This new installation includes a new Temperature and Pressure Relief (TPR) valve—the critical safety component that prevents the tank from over-pressurising—and all new lines to meet current Australian Standards.
  • A “Worry-Free” Process: We handled all the complex compliance paperwork, submitting the required government forms and paying the relevant fees on the customer’s behalf.

The old system was gone, and the new Rheem hot water system was fully installed, tested, and operational by that evening.

Customer Testimonial: “He Went Above and Beyond!”

We were blown away by the wonderful feedback from this Kallangur homeowner, Shane. It perfectly captures the high standard of service we strive for.

Our hot water heater was leaking. We called fallons and they came out that day. Dan was the technician and he went above and beyond! He was honest, easy to talk to and very helpful and informative. Because of dans honesty and professionalism we decided to replace our old heater. Dan was out the next day and it was working perfectly that night. We will 100% be using fallons again because of our experience with Dan.” – Shane B

  • Long-Term Efficiency: A new, modern Rheem hot water system is far more energy-efficient than an old, failing unit, which will lead to real savings on future power bills.
