The Benefits of Maintaining Your Saxon Hot Water Unit
Even though Saxon hot water systems are no longer manufactured, regular maintenance is key to keeping your hot water supply reliable.
These systems often feature a copper tank with an internal copper coil that heats cold water indirectly. Without proper upkeep, issues like a failed heat exchange or failed inner coil can disrupt your hot water service and even cause internal flooding or problems with the drain line.
By scheduling routine checks, you can catch small problems before they turn into costly repairs. Our licensed plumbers can source spare parts where available, helping you extend the life of your Saxon unit. Plus, keeping your system in good shape may help you stay compliant with new plumbing regulations.
Maintenance can also improve efficiency, and in some cases, your system may qualify for renewable energy certificates. If a repair isn’t viable, we can offer expert advice on upgrading to a new system that suits your needs.
Metropolitan Hot Water offers same-day service, so you don’t have to wait around. Whether it's a simple hot water service or troubleshooting a complex issue, we’re here to keep your Saxon unit running smoothly for as long as possible.
Problems with Older Saxon Hot Water Systems
Saxon hot water systems were well known for their long life expectancy and innovative design, but as they age, problems can start to appear – especially with older models.
One common issue is a failed HPNR valve, which can lead to constant draining to the nearest waste or even water damage. You might also hear a hissing sound, which could point to a problem with the inner coil or excess pressure building in the system.
As Peter Sachs Industries no longer manufactures these units, finding genuine Saxon parts can be difficult. Many customers need to rely on second-hand replacement parts, or consider replacement options from other brands. Over time, the copper tank may develop a pin hole leak, leading to reduced efficiency or complete failure.
If your system is showing signs of wear, don’t wait until the problem worsens. When your plumber arrives, they’ll inspect the unit, diagnose the fault, and explain your options clearly. With new rules and standards in place, upgrading may be your best bet for long-term peace of mind.
Metropolitan Hot Water is ready to help you assess your Saxon unit and decide whether repair or replacement is the smarter move. We’ve got your hot water needs covered.
