What Is An Instantaneous Hot Water System?
Plentiful hot water is a wonderful thing and an essential part of your day. Whether you want to hop into the shower first thing in the morning or enjoy a long bath in the evening, having fast and free-flowing hot water can make everything so much easier.
If you are looking to replace your old hot water system with something that allows you to enjoy hot water more conveniently, then you might want to think about bringing an instantaneous hot water system into your home.
But what is an instantaneous hot water system? And what can you expect from one? Read on to find out more.

The Instantaneous Hot Water System
You may have heard this system referred to as a continuous flow water system, and it is becoming more and more popular across Australia.
Instantaneous hot water systems are powered by gas rather than electricity and are wall mounted. The entire tank is not heated, but the water heats up when you twist your tap on.
The water continues to heat up as long as the tap is running, giving you only the hot water you want at the time.
Is The System Energy efficient?
When compared to other water heating systems, the instantaneous hot water system is considered to be one of the most energy and cost-efficient for the modern home. This is because you are not heating more water than you need.
They are considered to be especially energy efficient when they run off natural gas, though electric systems are also better for the environment than water heaters that heat an entire tank. While the initial installation cost might seem a lot, you will save money by not heating as much water each time the system is used.
Are They Safe?
You may wonder if instantaneous hot water systems are as safe as other kinds of systems. Actually, they may be even safer!
Because water does not stand in the tank, the chances of corrosion are lowered, and this reduces the amount of bacteria or rust that might contaminate your water.
Is An Instantaneous System Right For You?
Because the instantaneous hot water system is less bulky than older types of system, it is excellent for smaller homes and those who might live in apartments.
However, keep in mind that if you live in a larger home, it will be necessary to speak to the company that fits your hot water system about having the correct flow rate.
The good news is that these systems can last for twelve years or more as long as you keep them well maintained.
