Kwikot Industrial Water Heater Thermostat Replacement
Kwikot Industrial Water Heater Thermostat Replacement across Gauteng. Control and over-temperature thermostat replacement and calibration. Work covers the full Kwikot Industrial Water Heater range from the 500 L KS100 through to 3 000 L vessels, in vertical or horizontal configuration and in mild or stainless steel.
Industrial vessels carry a control thermostat and an independent over-temperature device. Replacing only the control stat when the safety device has also aged is a common shortcut that returns as a nuisance trip weeks later.
Vessels are lined with Carboguard 545 or glass-flake epoxy, heated by flanged Incalloy elements and controlled from 6 kW–84 kW pre-wired panels, so any repair has to consider the water side, the element side and the panel together.
Recovery rate and storage volume have to be considered together; adding heating capacity to undersized storage rarely fixes a peak-hour shortfall. Sites with long, poorly insulated pipework lose more heat in distribution than most owners expect, which reads as a capacity problem at the outlet.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Do you work on the Kwikot KS100 500 L industrial water heater?
Yes. The KS100 500 L vessel is the most common unit we attend, and the same work applies to the 750 L, 1 000 L, 1 500 L, 2 000 L, 2 500 L and 3 000 L models in the range.
What is included in kwikot industrial water heater thermostat replacement?
Control thermostat replacement, Over-temperature thermostat replacement, Pocket and capillary inspection, Setpoint and differential setting — with anything additional quoted before it is carried out.
How long does it take?
Typically two to three hours per vessel.
How long should the vessel take to recover?
Nominal recovery is about six hours from cold to 60 °C at rated electrical loading. If measured recovery is materially slower, the usual causes are scaled elements, a failed element on one phase, or a stepped control panel not bringing all stages in. Gauteng municipal water is moderately hard, so scale on elements and heat exchangers is the single most common cause of falling performance.
Where do you carry out this work?
Across Johannesburg, Ekurhuleni, West Rand, Midrand, Centurion and Pretoria. Call 069 268 0988 or email info@reyds.co.za.
Can the plant be upgraded rather than replaced?
Often, yes. Electrical loading can be increased inside panel and cabling limits, storage can be banked with a second vessel, and a heat pump can be added ahead of the cylinder to carry base load with the elements as backup.
