## Hot water for buildings, not just houses

We deliver large-scale hot water solutions for Perth developments, body corporates and commercial properties, from capacity and redundancy planning through to thermostatic mixing valve compliance under AS/NZS 3500.4 and ongoing maintenance agreements.

Commercial hot water is a different problem to residential, and it draws on the same licensed trade base as our residential

 work. A domestic failure is an inconvenience for one household. A plant room failure in a 40-unit apartment block is a building full of cold showers, a flood of calls to the strata manager, and an emergency spend that was never in the budget. The work is therefore less about the units themselves and more about capacity modelling, redundancy, compliance records and planning renewals before they become emergencies.

### Compliance is the baseline

Under AS/NZS 3500.4, hot water must be stored at 60C or above to control Legionella, while being delivered at a maximum of 50C to personal hygiene outlets, and 45C in healthcare, aged care and childcare facilities. Reconciling those two requirements is the job of a tempering valve or, in higher-risk settings, a thermostatic mixing valve (TMV).

TMVs in healthcare, aged care and childcare facilities require annual testing and servicing with records kept. We carry out that testing, document the results, and provide a written report in a format that goes straight into a committee agenda or an audit file.

### Capacity and redundancy planning

We model peak simultaneous demand across the dwellings or fixtures rather than simply adding up nominal fixture counts, which tends to produce plant that is either wastefully oversized or embarrassingly short at 7am. Then we build in tolerance, so the loss of a single unit degrades service rather than eliminating it.

Manifolded banks of continuous flow units suit buildings with variable demand and give natural redundancy. Large storage cylinders with good recovery suit buildings with sharp morning peaks. Many sites end up with a hybrid. The right answer depends on the building, the plant room space, the available gas or electrical supply, and how the committee wants to stage capital spend.

### Staged replacement without emptying the building

Nobody wants a building-wide shutdown. We schedule replacements in stages so only part of the site is offline at a time, run changeovers after hours where required, and give strata managers written notice periods they can circulate in advance. On larger renewals we work to a multi-year plan so the spend is predictable rather than reactive.

### Maintenance agreements

A maintenance agreement covers scheduled preventative servicing, an asset register with expected renewal dates, TMV and compliance testing records, and priority emergency dispatch. For buildings where a failure affects many residents or interrupts trading, that priority response is usually the whole point.

Why us

## Why choose Hot Water System Perth for commercial?

verified\_user

### Compliance-first approach

AS/NZS 3500.4, thermostatic mixing valve testing and 60C storage for Legionella control are handled as core requirements, not extras.

engineering

### Redundancy planned in

Shared facilities cannot afford a single point of failure. We design capacity so one unit down does not mean a building full of cold showers.

handshake

### Tenant disruption minimised

Staged replacements, after-hours changeovers and clear notice periods. Strata managers get the schedule in writing before work begins.

### Maintenance agreements

Scheduled servicing with an asset register, testing records and budget forecasting so committees can plan renewals rather than react to failures.

### 24/7 priority response

Contracted sites get priority emergency dispatch, which matters when a hot water failure affects dozens of residents at once.

### Documented and reportable

Written reports, defect lists with priorities and compliance records suitable for presenting to a body corporate committee.

Got questions?

## Commercial FAQs

### Do you handle body corporate and strata hot water systems?

expand\_more

Yes. We work with strata managers and body corporate committees across the Perth metro on capacity planning, redundancy, TMV compliance, staged replacement and ongoing maintenance. We provide written reports and prioritised defect lists so committees can make funding decisions.

### What compliance applies to commercial hot water in WA?

expand\_more

AS/NZS 3500.4 is the core standard. In practice that means water stored at 60C or above for Legionella control, delivered at a maximum of 50C to personal hygiene outlets, and 45C in healthcare, aged care and childcare settings, which requires thermostatic mixing valves rather than simple tempering valves.

### How often does a TMV need testing?

expand\_more

Thermostatic mixing valves in healthcare, aged care and childcare facilities require annual testing and servicing, with records kept. Commercial and shared residential facilities should be on at least an annual inspection cycle. We provide written test records suitable for audit.

### Can you minimise disruption to tenants during a replacement?

expand\_more

Yes, that is usually the deciding factor on these projects. We stage replacements so only part of the building is offline at a time, schedule changeovers after hours where required, and provide written notice periods that strata managers can circulate in advance.

### What is the difference between a tempering valve and a TMV?

expand\_more

Both limit the temperature of water delivered to outlets. A tempering valve is the simpler, less precise device used in most residential settings. A thermostatic mixing valve responds faster and more accurately, and is required in higher-risk environments such as healthcare, aged care and childcare facilities.

### Do you offer maintenance contracts?

expand\_more

Yes. A maintenance agreement covers scheduled preventative servicing, an asset register with expected renewal dates, compliance testing records, and priority emergency response. For buildings where a hot water failure affects many residents, that priority response is usually the main value.

### How do you plan capacity for an apartment building?

expand\_more

We model peak simultaneous demand across the dwellings rather than adding up nominal fixture counts, then build in redundancy so the loss of a single unit does not take the whole building offline. Manifolded continuous flow banks and multiple storage cylinders both have their place depending on the site.

### Can you work on our existing plant, or only new installs?

expand\_more

Both. Much of our commercial work is servicing, repairing and progressively renewing existing plant. We will always tell you where an asset has useful life remaining rather than pushing a full replacement.

### Do you provide written reports for committee meetings?

expand\_more

Yes. Site inspections come with a written report covering current condition, compliance status, a prioritised defect list and indicative costs, formatted so it can go straight into a committee agenda.

### How quickly can you respond to a commercial hot water failure?

expand\_more

We run 24/7 dispatch across the Perth metro, and contracted maintenance sites receive priority. For buildings where a failure affects multiple dwellings or a trading business, that response time is usually the reason to have an agreement in place before something goes wrong.
