We recommend having your hot water electric storage heater serviced once a year. Regular servicing helps keep it running efficiently, spots potential faults early, and can extend the life of the heater and cylinder.
This is often caused by a faulty thermostat, failing heating element, or a timer issue. Our engineers can quickly diagnose the problem, adjust settings or replace parts as needed to restore a reliable hot water supply.
Most common repairs can be completed in one visit, usually within 1–2 hours, depending on the fault and access. If specialist parts are required, we’ll explain the options, costs and arrange a convenient return visit.
Turn off the power supply to the heater and, if safe to do so, isolate the water. Then contact us as soon as possible – leaks and unusual noises can indicate pressure, scale or component issues that should be checked by a qualified engineer.
No – electric storage heaters and cylinders should only be worked on by a trained professional. DIY repairs can be dangerous and may cause electric shock, water damage or invalidate warranties, so always call a qualified engineer.
