Instantaneous Hot Water Heater
An instantaneous gas water heater is a tankless hot water system that works by heating water as it passes through a heat exchanger. Because it heats water as it passes through, they provide a virtually endless supply of warm water.
They are typically more energy-efficient than storage tank water heaters, because there is no energy keeping stored water warm. Because they don’t require a tank, they are also more compact, saving space in or around your home, and last longer.

Gas Hot Water System Servicing
For your system to last longer and perform more effectively, regular servicing is essential. We recommend servicing your gas hot water system at least once every 24 months.
The aim of servicing is to thoroughly inspect the system, identifying any parts that need cleaning, lubrication or replacement.
As part of the servicing process, we also perform essential safety checks, check performance and ensure that your hot water system is as energy-efficient as it possibly can be.
There are numerous benefits to gas hot water servicing, including:
- A more efficient hot water system that’s as economical to run as possible
- Less chance of a major breakdown
- Less strain on the boiler, as any build-ups of detritus will be removed
- Boiler will often last longer

What Are The Benefits Of Gas Hot Water Systems?
Gas hot water systems are a popular choice of hot water system for many homeowners in Australia as they have a range of advantages compared to traditional electric systems. This includes:
- Energy-efficient – especially instantaneous gas systems which only heat water as it’s needed
- Cost-effective – gas is generally cheaper to run, creating savings in the long run
- Continuous hot water – instant gas systems keep your water heated for as long as you need
What Is The Difference Between Storage and Instantaneous Gas Hot Water Systems?
Storage hot water systems store hot water in an insulated tank until the hot water is ready to use. In comparison, instantaneous gas water heaters heat water as it passes through the systems, meaning that no energy is lost via a storage tank and you can enjoy hot water on demand, as you need it.
How Much Do Gas Hot Water Systems Cost?
Gas hot water systems are typically more expensive to install than electric systems, but cheaper to run. The total cost of a gas water heater and installation will depend on the size of the heater, the make and model and whether or not your home already has a gas connection to fit the heater.
You can estimate that a gas hot water system will cost roughly between $900 and $1500, not including labour and installation costs. For more information on gas hot water costs, get in touch with our team for a free quote.
Does a gas water heater need electricity to function?
If your gas hot water system uses an electric igniter for the pilot light then it will need electricity to function.
