Cold showers are no fun! A lack of hot water disrupts your daily routine and leaves everyone in a grumpy mood. If you need hot water tank replacement or repair in Coffs Harbour or surrounding areas, don’t shiver. We’ll get your hot water running again for all system types.
A reliable stream of warm water is practically a human right, especially on a chilly morning in Coffs Harbour. From that revitalising post-surf shower at Emerald Beach to washing away the salt and sand after a family day at Diggers Beach, when the hot water goes AWOL, it throws your whole household into a frenzy faster than a rogue wave. And here’s a local truth: heating water can guzzle more energy than a hungry copper shark, often taking a significant bite out of your power bill!
Whether you’re facing a sudden hot water meltdown or you’re simply tired of lukewarm showers that fade faster than a summer sunset, these are all common signs that your hot water system needs some expert attention or a full-on hot water tank replacement.
Here’s how Emerald Beach Plumbing makes sure you’re never left shivering:
You get expert service because we know leading brands like Rinnai and Apricus inside out. Our technicians are pros at diagnosing and carrying out water heater repairs or replacements on all main types: electric, gas, or solar. We’ll find the problem fast and get it fixed properly.
As an official Rinnai service agent, we have specialist knowledge of these systems, which means you get practical help to save money when you upgrade. We can assist with the solar rebate claims process if you're considering solar hot water. This helps you make an energy-efficient choice for the best hot water system.
You get the right hot water system for your household's requirements. Through our on-site consultations, we'll assess your family's usage patterns and help you determine the most suitable equipment (solar, gas, or electric) to give you reliable hot water and good energy efficiency.

While our Coffs Harbour team are your hot water experts for installs, repairs and plumbing maintenance of all system types (electric, solar and gas), here are a few quick tips for your hot water system and knowing when to give us a buzz:
That’s a common concern! Upgrading an outdated system can make a big difference. Newer models, especially solar or high-efficiency gas units, often mean significant savings on your energy bills. You’ll also enjoy more reliable and consistent hot water and reduce your home’s carbon footprint. We can even help you with support for government rebate claims to make the switch more affordable.
Good question! Sometimes it’s a simple fix, like a faulty thermostat or element. Other times, especially if your tank is old, leaking or very inefficient, a replacement might be more cost-effective in the long run. Our experienced plumbers will give you an honest assessment and explain the types of hot water systems that would best suit your needs and budget if a new unit is the way to go.
Getting the right advice on hot water systems upfront is so important. Here’s how we handle it: We start with an on-site consultation, looking at your house plans, discussing your family’s hot water usage, your energy preferences (gas, electric, solar), and your budget. Based on this, we can recommend the ideal size and type of system (perhaps a Rinnai continuous flow unit or an Apricus solar system) to provide reliable, energy-efficient hot water for years to come.
Let us know about your hot water woes or your plans for a new system and where you are. We’ll arrange for one of our expert plumbers to provide a free, no-obligation on-site quote.
