When I’m not riding the trails or catching waves, you’ll find me in the garage, fixing and maintaining my gear to keep everything in top shape. I also have a passion for cooking and enjoy experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen.

Looking to move away from gas and reduce your hot water running costs?

This home currently has an external natural gas hot water system, making it a great candidate for a heat pump hot water upgrade.

Because of the existing external setup, converting to a heat pump hot water cylinder can be a straightforward installation, helping keep installation costs down.

Thinking about making the switch from gas to a more energy-efficient hot water system? Get in touch with Proturn Plumbing.

Where should a heat pump hot water cylinder go?
It’s not simply a case of finding an empty space and putting it there.
When we install a heat pump hot water cylinder, we look at things like:
The height and available space
How close it is to the kitchen and other hot water outlets
Airflow around the heat pump fans
Noise and where the unit is positioned
Condensate drainage
Access for future servicing and maintenance
The existing plumbing and how we can make the installation work efficiently
Getting the location right from the start can make a big difference to how the system performs and how practical it is for the homeowner.
Here’s a look at how we choose the location on one of our latest installations.

2 YEARS OF PROTURN PLUMBING!
What a journey it’s been!
On Monday, we celebrated two years of Proturn Plumbing, and what better way to mark the occasion than heading out for a good breakfast with the team.
We also had a pretty awesome weekend skiing Mount Ruapehu, which was a great way to recharge and celebrate everything we’ve achieved so far.
But the biggest milestone of all is welcoming Daniel to the team as our new apprentice! We’re excited to have him on board and look forward to teaching him the trade, watching him grow, and building a strong future together.
A massive thank you to our customers and the Whakatāne community for trusting us with your homes, your plumbing and gasfitting work, and for continuing to support our small business. Every job, recommendation, and kind word means a lot to us.
We’re proud of the work we do, the relationships we’ve built, and the direction Proturn Plumbing is heading.
And to the plumbers and gasfitters out there who might be looking for a change, a great team, and an opportunity to grow with a business that cares about quality and customer service then keep an eye on us. We’re building something special, and there’s plenty more to come!
Here’s to the next two years.

Water lake repair. This customer hit the nail on the head.

Got 45kg LPG bottles at home? This video is for you!
One of our customers recently came to us with a frustrating problem — they were going through a 45kg LPG bottle in just three weeks! 😳
We checked the gas system, serviced the appliances and tested for leaks — everything was operating as it should.
So where was all the gas going?
🚿 The shower!
We tested the flow rate by filling a bucket: • Old shower rose — 8 seconds to fill • New efficient shower rose — 15 seconds to fill
That might not sound like a big difference, but the old shower rose was using around twice as much water.
More hot water = more gas being used. 🔥💧
We replaced the shower rose with a more efficient option, which should significantly reduce the amount of hot water being used — and therefore help reduce LPG consumption.
If you're burning through your 45kg bottles faster than you think you should, don't automatically assume you've got a gas leak. There can be some surprisingly simple causes!
If you're in the Whakatāne area and you're having issues with high gas usage, give Proturn Plumbing, Gasfitting & Heating a call. We can help track down what's actually using your gas.
