How to choose the right hot water system for you

The right hot water system for your home depends on various factors. When selecting a system, you’ll need to consider the following factors:

  • Storage vs instant: Storage systems heat hot water in a storage tank, ready for use. Instant hot water systems are tankless and are generally more energy-efficient. However, they can have higher upfront costs than electric and gas storage systems.
  • Fuel: It’s important to make the right choice for your home when it comes to fuel, especially in a climate like Canberra. Hot water systems can be powered by a range of different fuel types, including electric, gas and heat pumps. You can even purchase solar hot water systems, powered directly by solar power.
  • Cost: Your budget plays a significant role in your hot water system. You can choose a more affordable model, or pay more upfront for a more premium and efficient product.

We install a wide array of different system types. Our helpful team will guide you through finding the right system for your needs.

Why you need high-quality hot water installation

Getting your hot water system installed correctly by a qualified professional is vital for the following reasons:

  • Safety: Improper installation can lead to serious hazards such as gas leaks, electrical faults or scalding.
  • Efficiency: A correctly installed system operates at its peak efficiency, ensuring you get the most out of your energy consumption and lower your running costs. Poor installation can lead to energy wastage and higher bills.
  • Longevity: Professional installation extends the lifespan of your hot water system. Incorrect pipework, inadequate support or improper connections can put undue stress on the unit. This can lead to premature failure or frequent breakdowns.
  • Warranty: Most manufacturers’ warranties require the hot water system to be installed by a licensed and qualified professional. Failure to do so can void your warranty, leaving you responsible for repairs or replacements if something goes wrong.

Signs your hot water system may need to be replaced

Thinking it’s time for a hot water upgrade? Here are some reasons your system might need to be replaced:

  • Major faults: If your system is leaking or failing to produce hot water, book a repair service. Our team will let you know if a full replacement is required.
  • Age: The average lifespan of a hot water system varies based on what type of system it is. For example, storage tank systems typically last 8-12 years, while continuous flow systems can have a longer lifespan. If your system is beginning to falter and approaching the end of its lifespan, it’s time to have a new model installed.
  • Discoloured or rusty water: These issues are usually caused by corrosion within your system. This usually requires a replacement.
  • Unusual noises: A healthy hot water system should be relatively quiet. If you hear loud banging, rumbling, popping, or gurgling sounds, it’s typically a significant fault with your system. This could be repaired, but may require a system replacement.
