Difference Between Tankless Water Heaters and Storage Tank Water Heaters
Are you thinking about installing a new water heater? With advances in technology and such a large and competitive market, choosing the right system for your needs sometimes seems overwhelming. Not only that, but you need to consider the water consumption of your household, your climate, and your location.
When making such a difficult and, let’s face it, expensive decision, you need the facts.
Did you know that the cost of heating water can consume 30% of the average Australian household’s budget? Getting this choice right may help you save big on future energy bills.
The first big decision you will need is a tankless water heater, more widely known as a continuous flow system or a storage-tank water heater. Each system has its advantages and disadvantages- it is all about what is suitable for you.
Each of these systems is available in electric, gas, and solar. We make a comparison between the different fuel sources here. While the type of fuel source is a significant consideration for energy efficiency, the unit’s overall design should also be factored into any of your decisions.
