Are gas hot water systems better than electric hot water systems?
Occasionally, when customers opt to upgrade or replace their old hot water system, we are asked whether gas hot water has any advantages over electric.
A modern gas hot water system presents a number of advantages:
-
it can produce less greenhouse gases compared to its electric hot water counterpart
-
it is one of the most efficient and sustainable options outside of solar hot water
-
it is cost effective compared to heat pump and electric hot water systems
-
instantaneous / continuous flow systems can provide unlimited hot water
-
rapid heat up times for hot water (making perfect for large families and high demand applications)
There are two gas supply options:

Storage tank gas hot water systems
These are the most basic type of solar hot water collectors. They function by collecting heat in a black glass box – this heat accumulates (like a greenhouse) and then pipes running through a metal plate, transfer this trapped heat to the water, which is then stored in the tank.
Instantaneous flow gas hot water systems (continuous flow)
Instantaneous gas hot water systems don't have storage tanks and heat water only when required. Water is heated by a gas burner as it flows through a coiled pipe called a heat exchanger.
