Hot Water on the Ferny Hills Slopes
Houses that began without town services
The first subdivisions went in from about 1960 and the suburb was only gazetted in 1972, so the earliest homes started life without full reticulated services, and some older yards still hold what was buried back then.
Tanks on their second or third run
Most of the housing stock went up through the 1970s and 1980s, so the original cylinders went long ago and the replacements are now the ones failing, with elements and anodes giving out one after the other.
Cold snaps and storm cells
Winter nights up here drop colder than the river flats, and a cold snap usually exposes a tank that was hanging on anyway, while the 1,056 mm of rain in an average year keeps every outdoor unit's mounting honest.
Pressure off the Caesar Road reservoir
Streets below the council's water reservoir can run high static mains pressure, so flexi hoses and tank relief valves there cop more wear than they should.

Frequently Asked Questions
Call (07) 3524 7164Do the slopes around Hutton Road in Ferny Hills change where a unit can go?
Yes, many blocks here sit on slopes steep enough to carry the council's landslide-hazard overlay, so we set outdoor units on level, drained ground with safe access for whoever services the unit next.
Does mains pressure below the Caesar Road reservoir wear parts out faster?
It can, because streets below the reservoir often carry high static pressure, which wears flexi hoses and relief valves quickly, so we check incoming pressure and valve ratings before any new unit goes in.
Does Unitywater need to know when a tank is swapped?
No, Unitywater stops at your meter, and a new tank joins the existing pipework, so the utility only enters the picture if a fault on the main or meter turns up mid-job.
Do winter cold snaps finish off old tanks around here?
Yes, hill air cools fast on clear winter nights, and a cold snap tends to be the last straw for a cylinder that was already struggling, so we hold early winter slots for those calls.
Which hot water systems suit Ferny Hills family homes?
The census counted 38.9 per cent of houses at four bedrooms or more, with households averaging 2.8 people, so a mid-to-large storage tank or a continuous flow unit rated for back-to-back showers fits most homes.
