Traditionally hot water systems have relied on tank storage, but recently continuous flow systems have begun to prove their worth in a big way. See what suits your needs.
Most hot water systems are either tank storage systems, or continuous flow systems (also known as ‘tankless’ or ‘instantaneous’ hot water systems). The type of system that’s right for your home will depend on what sort of fuel is available, and how big of a demand there is for hot water in your home.
Solar, for example, demands that you have a tank storage system which can retain the water that’s heated by the sun. Most continuous flow hot water systems in Australia operate on gas.
