That’s where Lexicon Electrical comes in. Our licensed hot water electricians look after homes and businesses right across Penrith, the Blue Mountains and Western Sydney. Whether you need a fault diagnosed, a brand-new system wired up or an ageing unit safely decommissioned, we’ll get you back to hot showers without the runaround.
But do I need a plumber or a hot water electrician
It’s a fair question, and the answer comes down to what’s actually gone wrong. If your tank is dripping, your pipes are corroded or there’s water pooling under the unit, that job belongs to a plumber. If your water is running cold, your hot water system keeps tripping the switchboard, or the unit is humming, buzzing or refusing to fire up, you’ll want a hot water electrician.
Anything involving the electrical side of your system needs to be handled by a qualified electrician. That includes thermostats, heating elements, dedicated circuits, isolation switches, circuit breakers and off-peak timers. We work hand in hand with reputable Penrith plumbers when a job calls for both trades, and we install leading brands of hot water systems, so you only need to make a single call to get things sorted.
Not sure which trade you need? Give us a ring on 0412 825 552. We’ll talk you through what’s likely going on and tell you honestly whether we’re the right fit or whether a plumber should be your first port of call.

Hot Water Electrician FAQs
How quickly can a hot water electrician get to my place in Penrith?
For most jobs across Penrith and the lower Blue Mountains, we can have a licensed electrician at your door within 24 to 48 hours of your call. If you’re completely without hot water and have small children, elderly family members or a medical reason for needing it sooner, mention that when you ring through. We’ll do our best to slot urgent jobs in around our scheduled work, and we’ll always be upfront about a realistic arrival time rather than overpromise.
Will my home be without hot water for long during a replacement?
A straightforward like-for-like electric storage swap usually takes around half a day from start to finish, so most households are back to hot water by the same afternoon. If you’re switching from electric to a heat pump or solar-boost system, or relocating the unit to a different spot on the property, the job can stretch to a full day or two because of the extra plumbing and circuit work involved. We’ll always give you a clear timeline before we begin and coordinate directly with the plumber so the changeover is as smooth as possible.
Do you provide a Certificate of Compliance after the job is finished?
Every electrical job we complete in NSW is covered by a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work (CCEW), which we lodge with your network provider and provide to you for your records. This document is often required for insurance claims, property sales, strata reports and rental compliance, so we make sure it’s issued promptly. If your real estate agent, insurer, landlord or property manager ever asks for proof that the work was completed by a licensed electrician, you’ll have it ready to hand over.
