If you’re looking for a new gas hot water system, there are a few things you should be aware of. Firstly, a typical gas hot water system will use about a third less energy than an electric system so not only will you enjoy the cost saving benefit of your gas system, you’re also doing your part to offset your carbon footprint and protect the environment. Secondly, gas storage units are faster and more reliable at heating your water so when you run out of hot water, it doesn’t take as long for the tank to reheat.

We would recommend choosing a size of hot water unit that best reflects your current household. Large tanks can seem like a good idea if you’re worried about running out of hot water but remember that gas units will heat faster than electric ones so choose a litre capacity that will help you save on energy costs, whist getting all the hot water you need. Confused about which hot water system is right for you? Remember to always consult a licenced plumber if you have problems with your hot water unit.
