We offer a wide range of any brand and type of hot water systems in Newcastle. The outline below is the pros and cons of each type of water heater for those who live in the Newcastle area.
Solar Hot Water Systems
Solar hot water heaters are the most efficient water heaters on the market. These energy-efficient hot water systems use less non-renewable energy than any other type of water heater. Equipped with electrical or gas boosters, these will work rain hail, or shine, provided that these are installed correctly and produced by reputable hot water Newcastle manufacturers. They are the most expensive to purchase and install, however, they will give you the largest payback over their lifespan than any other. Buying solar hot water systems gives you a $1000 government rebate. Solar hot water systems should be your number 1 choice if you can afford the upfront supply and install cost.
Gas Hot Water Systems
Gas hot water heaters provide plenty of hot water in Newcastle fast that’s why most people love them. They offer a range of many different sizes and types including the traditional gas storage hot water system or the instant gas or instantaneous hot water systems. Whilst not the most efficient water heaters in the market, they are affordable to purchase and install and do what they are designed to do and do it well. They are perfect for larger families and establishments with several users.
Electric Hot Water Systems
Electric hot water systems are the most common hot water systems installed all over Australia. There is a large range to choose from as far as size and brands and will be the cheapest to purchase and install. Depending how much you pay for power and what times of the day you use this power will greatly affect the efficiency and cost to run these systems. Electric Water Heater is most widely used in Australia hot water in Newcastle Electric hot water systems are a great addition to any house that has solar power already installed provided that you are running these systems in conjunction with your solar system and at the times of day when the energy is free or cheapest.
Heat Pump Hot Water
Heat pumps are second next to solar when it comes to hot water efficiency. Heat pump hot water heaters are outstanding in many ways. Technology has been around for a long time and it gets better every year. Heat pumps have received a bad rap over the past years. However, manufacturers have stepped up their game. New heat pump hot water models are now quieter, more efficient, and aesthetically pleasing. Purchasing heat pumps gives around $800-$900 worth of government rebates. It is an ideal addition to any house or business that has solar power installed. Different heat pumps have different features and settings that can be programmed on a user-friendly display or even via an app on your phone. Heat pumps are best for greenhouses that generate their own power.Â
Factors to Consider When Buying a Hot Water System
Here are many options and many different types of heaters and possibilities, however, you need to decide what hot water system will suit you and your family’s needs. The main contributing factors when deciding what is the best hot water system for you are as follows.
Budget
How much can you afford upfront? Environment friendly and energy efficient hot water systems cost more than the traditional electric hot water systems. However, your cost savings on your energy bills especially when you have off-peak tariffs would help you get the returns on your hot water investment.
Fuel Source
Can I get enough solar power from my place of residence? Do I have mains gas connection or is there a reliable LPG provider in my area? You need a licensed gas fitter to set up your connections if there is none. Good thing is, the Plumbing and Electrical Doctor also has a team of gas fitters to serve you.
Size
What size will suit my needs and showering habits? Consider how many people would be using hot water at a given point in time. You also have to count how many appliances and bathrooms that would require hot water during peak and off-peak hours.
Installation Location
The location of the water heater plays a big factor in how long the water heater will last. For whatever reason hot water Newcastle tanks that are installed inside always seem to outlast the units that are installed outside. On the other hand, installing them inside will pose danger if there is a leak as it can cause serious property damage and flooding.
Warranty
We recommend sticking to reputable hot water Newcastle brands with longer warranties. The warranties will vary across manufacturers. We advise purchasing water heaters with no less than 10 years warranty.

Hot Water Repair
Noise coming from the water tank is a sign of sediment buildup. Draining the hot water tank can solve the problem. If water is leaking, it could be due to worn-out hot water fittings or broken pipes. These can be easily repaired and replaced. However, when it comes to leaking water tanks, we recommend a new hot water system replacement immediately.Â
Hot Water Servicing
Hot water servicing and the intervals in which you service your water heater will play a large part in how long your system lasts. It’s recommended that you have your hot water in Newcastle repaired or serviced in Newcastle every five years. The replacement of the sacrificial anodes is also a must Want to check if your hot water service is not working properly?

New Hot Water Installation
If you have a hot water installation job in Newcastle, you can install most brands and makes. Always check the manufacturer’s recommendations for your area before installing a water heater. There are some makes and models that are not suitable for certain areas and water qualities. When you have a licensed plumber in Newcastle to install your new water heater, he must install a pressure limiting valve on the cold water feed to your water heater. This valve reduces the pressure to 500 KPA ensuring that the system isn’t affected by excessive pressure. Manufacturing warranties will be void if a pressure limiting valve is not installed in your hot water system. Ask for hot water Newcastle expert plumbers for any installation.
