Craigavon Ext · Priority
5 000 Litre Geyser Not Heating in Craigavon Ext
A large storage geyser is not reaching temperature or recovers far too slowly. This page covers how we diagnose and repair it on hot water systems in Craigavon Ext.
This fault is normally treated as priority work because the plant is still running but is damaging itself or wasting energy while it does.
Craigavon Ext is an extension of Fourways with a mix of original and renovated housing, so geyser positions, pressure control and pipework standards vary stand to stand. Gauteng municipal water is moderately hard, so scale on elements and heat exchangers is the single most common cause of falling performance.

Current draw per element circuit; Contactor and timer function test; Probe calibration against a reference; Coil delta-T measurement. The readings are recorded so the repair decision is based on data.
Can I keep using the system in the meantime?
Usually yes, for a short period, but efficiency and component life are both being lost while the fault persists.
Do you attend this fault in Craigavon Ext?
Yes. Technicians work out of the central Johannesburg base, which keeps travel time short for northern-suburb call-outs. Attendance in Craigavon Ext is grouped with other Fourways call-outs, which usually means a same-day or next-morning slot.
