Types of Hot Water Systems
If you’re in the market for a new hot water system, it pays to research your options. The one you ultimately choose depends on several factors, including how large your property is and the amount of water you use on a regular basis. The most common choices include a traditional electric and gas systems with or without a tank, and solar hot water systems. Heat pump systems are another choice.
Electrical Hot Water Systems
Electric hot water systems are generally the cheapest options in terms of upfront costs, however they can have running costs up to three times higher than gas systems. We stock a number of leading electrical hot water system brands and can provide same day service to domestic and commercial clients throughout Brookvale, the Northern Beaches and Sydney.
Gas Hot Water Systems
Gas hot water systems are typically less costly and more efficient to run than electric units and have the added advantage of heating water on demand. This means unless you run out of gas, you’ll never run out of hot water. As fully qualified gas fitters, we can install, repair and maintain all types of gas hot water systems. For an average four-person household, we recommend either a tank system between 250 – 315L or a continuous flow system.
Continuous Flow Gas Systems
Continuous flow gas systems are most popular of all hot water systems out there, especially with new homes around Brookvale, the Northern Beaches and Sydney. These systems are designed so that you never run out of hot water, which is great for any young family.
Commonly called instantaneous hot water system, these systems are designed to heat your water instantly or on-demand. This does not mean you will have hot water instantly at your tap. Like all hot water systems, the time it takes to get hot water to your tap depends on the run of pipework. The closer the hot water system can be placed to your tap, the better.
Solar Hot Water Systems
An increasingly popular choice among Brookvale, the Northern Beaches and Sydney households, solar hot water heaters are the most efficient systems available. In addition, many solar hot water systems can be installed with electric or gas booster elements to ensure on days with limited sunlight, you’ll still have a dependable source of hot water.
