Are you tired of running out of hot water just when you need it most? If you are struggling with this situation, either at home or in the workplace, a continuous hot water system won't let you down. Unlike storage hot water systems, which require a tank, continuous hot water is always on hand, even during times of heavy use. Storage hot water can be unreliable, energy-hungry, and frustrating when waiting for a tank to refill or constantly adjusting the temperature.
Don't suffer with inconsistent hot water while doing dishes or laundry, or step into a lukewarm shower because of an inefficient and unreliable system. The inconvenience and stress can become a daily frustration and additionally lead to an increase in your energy bills.
At Innovate Energy, we specialise in Continuous Hot Water Systems, also known as instantaneous water heaters. These systems provide hot water on demand, ensuring a never-ending supply 24/7 whenever you need it. Our team offers expert advice, installation, repairs and maintenance services for all leading brands of continuous hot water systems.
A continuous hot water system is also known as instantaneous hot water. The difference is in the wording and how it's interpreted. Instantaneous highlights that hot water is delivered almost immediately when you turn on the tap. Whereas continuous flow focuses on the fact that the hot water keeps coming for as long as you need it. Basically, this technology relies on gas or electricity to heat water on demand rather than storing it in a tank. The key advantage of this system is that it provides a continuous supply of hot water without running out, like storage systems. These compact yet highly efficient and energy-saving water heaters are ideal for various situations where they will excel.
Continuous hot water systems (tankless) are typically powered by gas or electricity, and set to a fixed temperature to better allow efficiency and simplicity. There are three main parts to a continuous hot water system.
🔥Flow Sensor: Flow sensors are the key features of an instant hot water system as they allow the system to only run when a hot water tap is turned on. This allows the system to be far more efficient than any other hot water system in homes or businesses where the hot water system isn't used regularly or there are only low demands. When the flow sensor triggers, it will turn on the system and begin heating water.
🔥Heat Exchanger: The heat exchanger allows an instant hot water system to almost instantly heat the water. A heat exchanger is essentially a tight coil of copper piping that maximises the surface area available to heat the water as fast as possible.
🔥Heating Element: The heating element can either be a gas burner or an electric heating coil that heats the water flowing through a heat exchanger, rapidly heating the water.
At Innovate Energy, we can help you select the continuous hot water system that will suit the hot water demands of your home or business. Once you’ve made your decision, our hot water specialist will conduct the installation, ensuring minimal disruption to your daily routines. If your continuous water heater requires a gas connection, our fully certified gas fitters will handle every aspect safely and in line with safety practices and codes. As part of our installation process, we also fit a Thermostatic Mixing Valve (TMV) to regulate water temperature and protect users from scalds or burns. You can rely on Innovate Energy every step of the way.
When problems arise with your continuous hot water, it causes more than just inconvenience; it has the potential to disrupt your entire daily routine. Whether it’s being left without a hot shower in the morning or struggling to clean greasy pots and pans, these situations can often be avoided. At the first sign of hot water trouble, call the experts to diagnose the issue and offer a solution. In most cases, our technician can repair your system on the spot. Continuous hot water systems are typically simpler to repair or replace compared to other types, thanks to their straightforward design and need for fewer components. At Innovate Energy, we will always prioritise repairs first; however, in some cases, a replacement may be the smarter and more cost-effective choice.
With our busy lifestyles, it's easy to delay repairs; however, this in turn can lead to more complicated and costly issues, as minor problems can quickly escalate. If this occurs, the repairs may become more complex and costly, or you might require a system replacement. If you’re dealing with low water pressure, fluctuating temperatures, or leaks, contact Innovate Energy today to restore your hot water performance and supply.
