How Does a Storage Hot Water System Work?

A storage hot water system works by heating water and storing it in an insulated tank, ready for use whenever you need it. It’s a simple, reliable setup that’s been a staple in Aussie homes for decades.

Here’s how it works:

• Cold water enters the tank from the mains supply.
• A gas burner or electric element heats the water inside the tank.
• Once heated, the water stays hot thanks to insulation around the tank.
• When you turn on a hot tap, hot water flows out, and cold water refills the tank to start the process again.

Many systems also include a thermostat to control the water temperature and a pressure relief valve for safety. Whether you choose gas, electric, or solar-powered, the basic function remains the same – hot water when you need it, all day long.

The Benefits of Using a Storage Hot Water System

Storage hot water systems are a popular choice across Australia – and for good reason. Whether you’re looking at gas hot water systems, electric hot water systems or even solar systems, storage models offer reliable performance and flexibility.

• They deliver a consistent supply of hot water to multiple hot water outlets at the same time – perfect for families.
• You can choose from electric storage systems, electric hot water heaters, or those powered by natural gas to match your home’s energy setup.
• Storage units let you control how much hot water you have on hand, so there’s less waiting.
• Compared to continuous flow units, they’re easier to install and maintain.
• Many newer models offer excellent energy efficiency, helping to lower energy costs.

When you’re choosing the right hot water system, a storage model can be a simple, energy efficient and cost-effective hot water solution for your household.

Comparing Storage HWS to Other Hot Water Systems

When choosing a hot water system, it’s important to understand how storage systems compare to other options like instant or solar models.

Here’s a quick breakdown to help you decide what’s right for your home:

• Storage hot water systems heat and store water in a tank, making hot water readily available, even during peak usage times.
• Instant (continuous flow) systems heat water only as needed, which means no storage tank and potentially lower energy use for small households.
• Solar hot water systems use the sun’s energy to heat water, reducing energy bills, though they often need a backup booster in colder weather.
• Heat pump systems absorb heat from the air to warm water, offering high efficiency but requiring suitable climate conditions.

Storage systems are a solid choice for larger households with consistent hot water needs. They're reliable, easy to install and compatible with both gas and electric energy sources.
