Why We Recommend Rheem Hot Water Systems

Rheem is one of the most trusted names in Australian plumbing. Their products are built with our conditions in mind - from the dry Adelaide summers to the colder winter nights when your system really gets tested.

Founded in the 1930s and proudly operating in Australia for over 85 years, Rheem continues to lead in innovation, energy efficiency, and long-lasting reliability. We have worked with every major brand over the years, and Rheem stands out for high performance and sturdy build.

Adelaide Homes Deserve Rheem

We have worked in every kind of Adelaide home—from classic homes in Unley and Norwood to brand-new builds in Mount Barker or Seaford Meadows. The most common hot water issues we see around the city usually come down to:

01.

Cold weather strain on older systems

02.

Hard water mineral build-up, especially in outer suburbs

03.

Poor installation or DIY fixes done in the past

04.

Lack of regular maintenance - something we now offer as part of our yearly servicing schedule

Rheem units are built with all of these in mind. They are tough, efficient, and designed to keep running smoothly long after others give up.

Need a Fast Fix? We’re On the Way

We understand that hot water repairs aren’t something you can plan for. That’s why we provide:
