Electric Storage Hot Water Heaters
Coffs Harbour
Electric storage systems provide hot water by using a heating element within the cylinder to heat the water to a set temperature controlled by a thermostat. The simplistic design of these storage heaters result in their reliability and are much more common in most households due to their low upfront cost compared to other types of systems.
Despite their reliability and cheaper upfront cost, electric storage hot water heaters are more expensive to run then a gas or solar system. A great way to offset energy costs for storage heaters is to have your system electrically run on off-peak which means your tank will only heat up during a given time period instead of continuously drawing power.
These systems are available in a wide range of different sizes to accomodate all homes and hot water demands from the smallest units being 25L to fit in a cupboard, all the way up to a 400L tank to suit large families.
