What Should I Consider When Investing in a Hot Water System?
There are several factors that are an important consideration when choosing and investing in a hot water system for your home or business, such as:
Household Size & Demand: Consider the size of your home or business and it’s needs. A larger household will benefit from a higher capacity system or one that can provide continuous hot water. Whereas smaller homes or businesses may work better with an instant hot water system to save energy on heating excess water. Read our guide on hot water system sizing.
Energy Efficiency: Always consider the energy ratings on hot water systems you’re interested in to determine if they’ll suit your budget. In Australia, a star-rating will apply to products that gives you a basic idea of energy use. Read our guide on price comparisons.
Installation Costs: Factor in if your home or business already has the components necessary for your chosen hot water system, for example this may be gas connections if you’re considering installing a gas hot water system. Additional work will add to installation costs.
Location & Space Availability: There are a range of places to choose from when considering hot water system placement, including inside, outside and on the roof. You need to consider location in terms of system effectiveness – for example a solar systems are best suited for sunny locations. Hot water systems vary in size and therefore some will need larger areas than others.
