Water Heater Installation Replacement at 723 Tampines Street 72
Tampines North Replacement Ariston

723 Tampines Street 72 HDB – Ariston Heater Replacement

Completed on 3 January 2026.
  • 🚨 Issue:
    The Ariston storage water heater tank is leaking due to internal corrosion and tank failure.
  • 🔍 Finding:
    - 🔴 Severe internal tank corrosion: Extensive rust staining on the front casing indicates that the inner tank has rusted through. Once the storage tank begins leaking, replacement of the entire heater is the only safe and reliable solution.

    - 🚱 Missing approved double check valve: No approved check valve was found on the cold water inlet. This is required to prevent backflow into the potable water supply and is part of the recommended installation requirements for storage water heaters.

    - 💧 No discharge (drain) pipe installed: The pressure relief valve discharge is not connected to a drain pipe leading to the nearest floor trap. If the safety valve releases hot water due to pressure build-up, water may discharge directly into the ceiling space, potentially causing ceiling damage, water seepage, and scalding hazards.
  • The defective Ariston storage water heater was successfully replaced with a new storage water heater.

Completed on 9 November 2024.
  • 🚨 Issue: The Joven storage water heater is operating with an incomplete plumbing safety installation.
