Franklin Roosevelt Park sits within the Randburg belt, with larger stands, long hot water runs and frequent pool heating. Static pressure and dead-leg length are checked as part of any hot water complaint here. Gauteng municipal water is moderately hard, so scale on elements and heat exchangers is the single most common cause of falling performance.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions

How do you diagnose it?
Combustion analysis at high fire; Blowdown valve inspection for passing; Feedwater temperature logging; Fireside and waterside inspection. The readings are recorded so the repair decision is based on data.
Can I keep using the system in the meantime?
No — isolate the plant and call 069 268 0988. Running it in this condition risks further damage or an unsafe situation.
