Gas Hot Water Systems

Gas Hot Water Experts

A hot water system that uses a heating element powered with Natural Gas can be a very efficient, reliable and environmentally friendly way of creating your household’s hot water.

This is also far cheaper than electric hot water systems, and with newer technology like electric ignition taking the place of pilot lights, they’re even more efficient and cost-effective.

If you’ve got a continuous flow gas hot water system that isn’t working properly, or you’d like to change to a storage model, our Metropolitan Hot Water system professionals will be able to help you. We can do any and all repairs, replacements and installations you need, so contact us now.

Some of the gas storage and instant gas hot water brands that Metropolitan Hot Water can install, service and repair, include:

• Rheem
• Dux
• Rinnai
• AquaMAX
• Bosch
• Vulcan

Types of Gas Hot Water Systems

When it comes to gas hot water systems, you’ve got a few great options to choose from. Each type has its own advantages, depending on your household’s needs:

• Storage tank systems: A gas storage system heats and stores water in an insulated tank, ready for use at any time. A gas storage tank system is great for larger households with high hot water usage.
• Continuous flow (instantaneous) systems: A gas continuous flow system heats water on demand, so you only use energy when you need hot water. Continuous flow units are compact, energy-efficient and ideal for smaller households or homes with limited space.
• Gas-boosted solar systems: A solar hot water system with a gas booster combines the power of the sun with the reliability of gas. It uses solar energy as the primary source and switches to gas when needed, making it a highly energy-efficient choice.

Choosing the right system can make a big difference in your comfort and energy bills.

Common Gas Hot Water Issues

Gas hot water systems are generally reliable, but like any appliance, they can run into problems. Knowing the common issues can help you spot trouble early and avoid the sudden shock of cold showers.

• No hot water: This could be due to a pilot light that’s gone out, a faulty gas supply, or a problem with the thermostat.
• Inconsistent water temperature: If your water goes from hot to cold without warning, the thermostat or gas burner might be malfunctioning.
• Low water pressure: Sediment build-up or internal pipe blockages can restrict water flow, leading to poor pressure in taps and showers.
• Unusual noises: Rumbling or banging sounds could be caused by sediment in the tank or a failing burner.
• Water leaks: Corrosion, faulty valves, or cracks in the tank can lead to visible leaks or damp areas around the unit.

If you notice any of these, it’s best to call a professional plumber from Metropolitan Hot Water.
