It’s Getting Chilly Brissy: Time To Think Hot Water
Did you know that an average Queensland household can use around 25%-35% of its total energy on heating water? Maintaining your current hot water system, or installing a new efficient system, is a great way to reduce your power bills and environmental impact.
The Low Down On Hot Water Systems
It can quickly become overwhelming with the number of hot water system options available. Rest assured, there are only two types of systems – storage heaters that use a tank and instantaneous systems that only heat water when needed. 80% of Queensland housefuls currently use an electric hot water system, but solar energy, natural gas and LPG can also heat them.
Hot Water And The Environment
Around 50% of Australian households currently use conventional electric hot water systems in their homes. Amazingly these water heaters produce at least three times the greenhouse gases of low-emission alternatives and are generally less efficient and more expensive to run. Energy-efficient systems can also provide long-term savings on your electricity bill.
