30 days on labour plus the manufacturer’s official warranty on the installed unit. Water on the Costa Blanca runs at 30-40 French degrees of hardness. That means a standard electric water heater of any brand, fitted with no special precaution, lasts five to eight years before serious problems start. Compared with the same unit installed in soft-water regions like Galicia or northern Catalonia, where it easily reaches twelve or fifteen years, the difference is brutal and ends up costing real money. Removal of the old unit, fitting of the new one, electrical and water connection, full function test.

The reality is that almost nobody changes it. Service techs rarely warn and owners don’t know it exists. When we do a first service on a heater older than five years, the anode is almost always fully consumed. The reason is limescale building up inside the tank. The heating element gets coated with a thicker and thicker layer that acts as insulation. The thermostat sees the target temperature isn’t being reached and pushes more current. The bill goes up, the unit heats less efficiently, and eventually the element burns out. Sometimes the tank ruptures internally and the catastrophic leak floods the utility cupboard. Water takes longer to heat than in the first year. It comes out hot at first and cools quickly. You see an unusually high electricity bill. There are kettle-like noises that mean sediment bubbling at the bottom. The first few seconds of water look slightly cloudy. Any of these symptoms warrants a service.

We always replace old flexible hoses and the safety valve to prevent later leaks. Installation, replacement and repair. Limescale removal, sacrificial anode and element. Diagnosis before quoting. We assess whether repair or replacement makes sense based on age, tank condition and the fault detected.
