How do I maintain my hot water system in Melbourne?

Test the T&P relief valve annually. Have the anode rod inspected every 3-5 years and replaced when depleted. Check for drips and corrosion at connections and the tank base.

Replace when the system is over 10 years old with a major fault, when repair cost exceeds 50% of a new unit, or when upgrading to a more efficient system makes financial sense with available rebates.
