Can a 'new' electric hot water system save on energy and money costs?
Most of the time, it is usually wiser to replace a faulty hot water system, that is out of its warranty period, rather than repair it. We understand that this can be an unexpected cost for most households and that the first instinct will be to insist on a repair. Sometimes a simple repair, such as a valve will be effective. In other cases, due to age of the system, it would be more cost effective, in the long run, to replace the system / unit.
Some key considerations to take into account when considering replacing your existing electric hot water system:
-
a new hot water system will operate consistently and efficiently – meaning power bill and energy savings
-
a new hot water system can generally heat more water faster than some of the older systems, therefore making them more energy efficient which reduces your power bill
-
other options such as heat pump hot water systems can save more power, albeit at a higher initial cost
Howzat Plumbing can install, service and repair:
Storage tank electric hot water systems: Standard electric storage water heaters use a heating element inside the tank to heat the water.
Instantaneous flow electric hot water systems: When the hot water tap is turned on, this triggers the flow sensor and the heating element enabling the water to be heated as it flows through the system.
An old electric hot water system costs more to run (along with required repairs) than a newer energy efficient system.
