The best way to keep your system running at peak performance is with annual checks. A small investment in hot water system plumbing maintenance can extend the lifespan of your unit and reduce the risk of costly breakdowns.
Every home and business has its own hot water requirements. Whether you’re a family of four with back-to-back morning showers, a small café needing consistent hot water flow, or a couple living in a studio apartment, the right hot water system can make all the difference. Here’s what you need to know about the different types of hot water systems, when weighing up your options:
Both electric and gas hot water systems are widely used in Australian homes, but the right choice depends on your energy access, budget, household size and your family or business usage.
Electric systems are great for simplicity and suitable for small spaces. Gas systems perform well economically, particularly for homes with a higher daily demand.
As we’re licensed and insured for both plumbing and gas, we’re able to provide all the supporting gas services you need with your gas hot water system.
Tip: If your property has an existing gas connection and you use a lot of hot water, a gas system may be the most economical long-term choice.
If you’re looking to cut down on energy bills and do your part for the environment, the most efficient and sustainable choices in hot water technology include solar, heat pump, and solar-assisted heat pump systems.
All three systems may be eligible for an ‘upgrade your hot water in NSW’ incentive. We can even do the paperwork for you so this acts as an upfront discount, eliminating the need for you to apply to get the money paid back.
These systems harness the power of the sun, making them a long-term investment in sustainability and energy savings. Solar Hot Water Systems:
Heat pumps pull warmth from the surrounding air and transfer it to your water, working much like a reverse-cycle air conditioner. Heat Pump Hot Water Systems:
For those who want the best of both worlds, solar-assisted heat pump systems (SAHP) combine the benefits of solar energy with the year-round reliability of a heat pump. Solar-Assisted Heat Pump Systems:
Solar-assisted heat pumps are an ideal solution for households looking to dramatically cut running costs without compromising on performance—even on overcast days.
Once you’ve narrowed down the type of energy your system will use, the next step is choosing how your hot water will be delivered.The three most common options are instant, continuous flow, and storage tank systems. Each works a little differently and suits different lifestyles. Here’s how they compare:
Instant hot water systems are compact, efficient, and do exactly what the name suggests, heating water on demand. Instant systems:
Best for: Singles, couples, or smaller households where space is limited and water use is moderate.
This is the big brother of the instant system—still tankless, but designed to keep up when there’s more demand. Continuous flow systems:
Best for: Busy families or homes that like to run multiple showers or appliances at once.
Reliable and familiar, storage tanks heat and store a set amount of water so it’s ready to go when you are. Storage tanks:
Best for: Households with a steady routine and room to store the tank.
No matter what you choose—electric, gas, instant, storage tank, solar, or heat pump—we’ll walk you through the options and costs, recommend the right size and ensure the unit is installed with expertise and precision.
We know the difference between a good hot water system and the right hot water system for you. Call us for a look and quote to find the one that best suits your lifestyle and needs.
Absolutely—and we see the evidence firsthand every day.
It’s a great time to update with a solar hot water heat pump through Dream Plumbing.
Compared to a standard electric water heater, which most people have, a solar hot water heat pump will cost you approximately $200 a year in running costs as opposed to over $1000 a year for an electric heater.
They are generally 70-80% more efficient.
Plus, we’ll help organise your eligible government rebate, making the switch smooth and more affordable from day one.
