Calorifier Not Heating in Bassonia Rock
The calorifier receives steam or hot water but the stored water stays cold. This page covers how we diagnose and repair it on hot water systems in Bassonia Rock.
This fault is normally treated as priority work because the plant is still running but is damaging itself or wasting energy while it does.
Bassonia Rock is a high-value residential pocket of Alberton, typically with multiple geysers or a heat pump on buffer storage, and in many cases pool or underfloor heating on the same plantroom. Gauteng municipal water is moderately hard, so scale on elements and heat exchangers is the single most common cause of falling performance.
