Types of Hot Water Systems:

There are a wide variety of hot water systems on the market each with it's pros and cons and use cases that they excel in.

  • Electric Hot Water Systems:

    Electric hot water systems are one of the most popular hot water systems out there because of their ease of installation and wide range of sizes that meet the needs of nearly all homes and businesses in Australia. They are split up into two types storage and instantaneous hot water systems. Storage hot water systems use an insulated tank with an electrical coil to heat a large volume of hot water then intermittently run the system to hold the water at a set temperature ready for when you need it. Storage systems are perfect for larger homes (2+ people) and businesses or homes with higher hot water demands. Instant or tankless hot water systems use a coil of copper piping that heats up as the water runs through. These systems only run when a tap is turned on in your home this saves big time when your hot water system is only used a few times a month or week in lower quantities or you have a smaller home or business with only one or two taps and a shower.

  • Gas Hot Water Systems:

    Gas hot water systems much like electric hot water systems come in two types storage and instant or tankless hot water systems. They share similar pros and cons to their electric counterparts and are often used as an alternative to electric systems on homes that have a natural gas mains connection as it can be cheaper to run than an electric hot water system.

  • Solar Hot Water Systems:

    Solar hot water systems are quickly overtaking electric and gas hot water systems in popularity due to government rebates and their exceptional efficiency and near lack of running costs saving you big time on your energy and gas bills. Solar hot water systems use a panel or evacuated tube on your roof to heat the water using the sun's heat meaning on a sunny day your hot water system will cost you nothing to run. They come in a wide range of sizes so there is a solar hot water system for nearly every home or business.

  • Heat Pump Hot Water Systems:

    Heat pump hot water systems are the newest type of hot water systems and use similar technology to conventional air conditioners to heat the water. These systems use a series of refrigerant coils to draw the heat out of the ambient air rather than using an electrical current or gas burner to heat the water this greatly reduces the electricity needs of the system. These systems have a similar tank construction of a storage hot water system letting them intermittently heat the tank reducing operating costs even further.
