Geyser services
Storage water heaters serviced, descaled and repaired. Most no-hot-water calls come down to one of two parts — the heater coil or the thermostat — and both are listed with their prices below.
What we do
Kolkata water leaves scale on a heating element, and scale is what kills most geysers. A geyser that takes longer and longer to heat is usually telling you the element is furring up rather than failing outright.
Draining and flushing the tank, clearing scale, checking the safety valve, inlet and outlet connections, and testing that the unit cuts off at temperature.
When the element has scaled beyond cleaning or burnt out. Coils are priced by model, since capacity and wattage differ between units.
For water that runs scalding, never gets warm, or a geyser that keeps cycling on and off without settling at temperature.
Before you call
Either a burnt-out heater coil or a failed thermostat. Both are quick to test, and the test decides which one you actually pay for.
Almost always scale on the heating element. A standard service at ₹499 often restores it; a heavily scaled coil needs replacing.
A thermostat that is no longer cutting off. Worth attending to promptly — a thermostat is ₹599 plus ₹399 labour.
Could be the safety valve doing its job, a loose connection, or tank corrosion. The first two are repairable; the third usually is not.
Typically a heater coil that has failed and is leaking to earth. Leave it switched off until it has been checked.
A thermostat that is not holding its set point, or heavy scale causing the element to overheat locally.
Geyser pricing
Heater coils are shown as a range because capacity and wattage differ between models. We confirm the exact figure once we know which geyser you have.
| Service | Price |
|---|---|
| Standard service | ₹499 |
| Heater coil replacement | ₹1,299 – ₹2,499varies by model |
| Thermostat replacement | ₹599+ ₹399 labour |
Geyser questions
Once a year is a sensible rhythm for most homes, and the natural time is just before winter when the geyser starts getting daily use. Regular descaling is the single thing that most extends the life of the heating element.
Because coils are not interchangeable. A coil for a small 6 litre unit and one for a 25 litre unit differ in capacity, wattage and fitting, so they differ in price. The range of ₹1,299 to ₹2,499 covers the models we commonly work on, and we confirm the exact figure once we know yours.
Not necessarily. The pressure relief valve is designed to release a little water as the tank heats and expands. Continuous dripping, or water coming from the body of the unit rather than the valve, is a different matter and should be looked at.
If the tank itself is sound, then yes — a coil or thermostat replacement costs a fraction of a new unit. Once the tank has corroded and is leaking from the body, replacement is the honest recommendation, and we will say so.
