• Gas vs electric instant hot water systems
  Instant hot water systems offer a compact, often energy efficient water heating option. Once you've decided instant, also called continuous flow or instantaneous, is the way you need to choose between either a gas (natural gas or LPG) and electric models. Instant electric hot water systems only make up around 3% of water heaters used in Australia with instant gas a much more popular 21%. Electric instant hot water units are becoming an increasingly popular substitute for homes and businesses with more models from reputable brands, such as Stiebel Eltron, coming out each year. Gas instant hot water heaters have been around for many years and have been proven to be an energy efficient alternative to traditional storage models.
• Why should I have controllers on my gas hot water unit?
  Controllers are a great way to save water, gas and provide safety features when using your gas hot water system.
  
  Save on your gas bill - water controllers give you the ability to set a specific temperature on your tankless hot water system which means you only heat the water to the temperature you require - that's right, no heating water to maximum temperature only to cool the water back down to the temperature you find comfortable for showering and bathing.
  
  Safety - babies, young or elderly are particularly prone to scalding by hot water even at 50 degrees. By presetting the water temperature with the correct digital Rinnai or Bosch water controller will allow you to set the water temperature to a safe and comfortable level protecting those you love
• It takes to long for my hot water to come through, why?
  The water in your pipes is cold water, when you turn your hot water tap on all this water must be purged before hot water will filter through to the tap. We suggest you have the hot water unit positioned nearest the kitchen where possible as this is usually the most frequently used hot water tap and where you need the hot water the fastest.
• How much hot water does your household need?
  Choosing the right-sized unit is essential to getting the best value from your new hot water system. A system that is too small will always run out of hot water and leave you with expensive utility bills. If you buy one that is too large then you’ll be wasting money on the installation and running costs for hot water that you'll never use. Storage tank hot water systems are sized based on how many people need to regularly use the hot water supply. Continuous flow hot water systems are sized according to the number of hot water outlets in the home.
• Will you have enough space for installation?
  The cost to replace a hot water system often depends on the location and the size of the unit. Most hot water systems are hidden away in unusual spots like under floors or in smaller rooms and attics which can make it a complicated process. Your new hot water system can't be installed if you don’t have enough space available. Electric hot water systems can be installed indoors indoors or they can be installed outdoors, but gas requires a chimney or flue to have the unit inside your home. If you are using a solar hot water system then you also need appropriate north-facing roof space for your solar panels - since solar hot water systems can’t function effectively without it!
