What Are The Different Types Of Hot Water Systems?
Understanding the 4 different types of hot water systems might help you make a more informed decision with your hot water heaters. While the major leading brands like Rinnai, Rheem, and Dux all offer different systems, we can walk you through the variations between each. The energy source for your hot water heater could be electric, gas, solar, or heat pump. Restrictions such as the availability of the energy source might contribute to your selection.
Electric Hot Water System
Over 50% of Australian homes opt for electric hot water systems. Electric hot water heating systems derive their energy source from, you guessed it... Electricity. Electric hot water systems are commonly found with a water tank. The water is stored in the water tank at the required temperature. When the water is depleted from your tank, your tank will refill and then you'll need to wait until the water has reached the desired temperature again.
The benefit of using an electric heating system with a large storage tank is the ability to set the heating at an off-peak time. The heating element is usually located at the base of the storage tank. Electric hot water systems are often used in conjunction with other heating methods, like solar. The backup electric energy source makes sure you're never left without the ability to heat your water.
Solar Hot Water System
Solar hot water systems have seen an increase in installation over the past twenty years and energy efficiency is a major reason why. These hot water systems have become more accessible than ever. A solar hot water system is a greener option, less expensive running costs but ultimately should be supported by another form of energy known as a booster, either gas or electric... for when the clouds are grey and the sun doesn't shine.
These Solar hot water heaters will usually require a hot water tank in some form. Whether it's a ground tank or a storage system on the roof.
Gas Hot Water System
Gas hot water units are usually associated with continuous flow systems. This type of gas hot water heater delivers an untapped supply of hot water. As the water is heated by the gas on-demand, you don't have to worry about running out of hot water.
No storage to think about, less space reserved for your gas water heater. Gas hot water systems are largely popular due to this reason, forever supply of hot water, thanks gas!
Heat Pump Water Heater
A heat pump hot water system will generally use an average of 30% less energy than a conventional electric water heater. The running costs are quite efficient. Energy efficiency and heat pumps are a natural match.
This system utilises a compressor. Extracting the warmth from the air and using that to heat the water. The compressor may sound similar to an air conditioner.
