Immersion Heater Repair

Immersion Heater Repair

Supplied & Fitted

Theres nothing worse than no hot water in your home, especially when you go to fill a bath or get into the shower only to discover there’s no hot water, first thing most people check, is the immersion switch or timer is turned on, well yes, its most likely the immersion element is not working and needs repair or replacement.

Immersion elements usually need to be replaced every 5 – 7 years depending on how much use they get, when the immersion stops heating the water it can either be the immersion thermostat or the element itself, we carry most immersion elements & thermostats as part of our van stock.

We carry most Single & Dual immersion elements in our vans, as we are Phibsboro based and usually work in the area & surrounding area and aim to get out as soon as possible, we can usually give a quotation over the phone, just send us 1 or 2 pictures of the element & switch / cylinder & surrounding pipe work via WhatsApp and we can give you an instant price over the phone.

The average cost of replacing an immersion element is €195 usually take 1 – 1.5hrs from start to finish, (this price is based on a standard 18 x 36 cylinder with a Dual copper Element Sink / Bath).
Prices & times do vary depending on the type of Hot water cylinder & Immersion you have

Single Immersion element

Supplied & Fitted

Controlled by a single switch, these are usually used where the hot water cylinder is mostly heated by the central heating & the immersion element is used as a backup.

Dual Immersion Elements

Supplied & Fitted

Dual elements have 2 elements 1 short (Sink) & 1 long (Bath) & is controlled by double switch Sink / Bath, these are the most common elements used in houses with or without central heating.

Twin Immersion Elements

Supplied & Fitted

Twin immersion elements are used in pressurised unvented cylinders & copper cylinders in apartments that only use electricity to heat the water, they are usually controlled by a time clock which heats the bottom element at night for a full tank of hot water and the top one is the boost button to heat the top half of the cylinder during the day.

Anthony did a fantastic job fitting my range cooker today. He showed up when he said he would, explained everything and made sure I was happy before he finished up. Very friendly and professional and I feel confident that the job has been done to a high safety standard. A lovely guy who I will definitely be calling on again! Highly recommend if you're looking for a trustworthy person at a fair price 👍

Anthony came out to service our boiler before we moved into our new house. We lucked out getting a Saturday appointment, he did a complete check of the gas safety, the boiler safety and a full service on the boiler itself, giving us great peace of mind. I cannot recommend him enough.

Anthony is a great gentleman. Very friendly and kind. He fixed our pump by replacing the electric board in no time. Evidently, he knows his stuff. He also shared handy tips about our problematic toilet. I warned him that he’ll become my go-to guy from now. Will not hesitate to contact him again. 👏🏼
