Gas storage, continuous flow, electric storage or a heat pump. Four options, and the right one is decided by your house rather than by whatever is being promoted this season.

Ring up and the first questions are practical ones. What is connected at the moment, where the old unit sits, how many bathrooms run at once and what space there is outside. Toongabbie is 5.5 kilometres from base, so a dead system can usually be sorted the same day, seven days a week.

    What happens when you call

    1. The existing setup gets established. Gas or electric, storage or instantaneous, where it stands and how old it is. Much of that can be settled on the phone.
    2. The house gets looked at, not described. Available space, flue paths, the electrical supply and where a condensate line could run all decide what is genuinely possible.
    3. Options come with reasons. You are told what suits and, just as usefully, what does not and why.
    4. The install is done to compliance. Tempering valve, relief drain, gas certification where it applies, old unit removed and taken away.

    About Toongabbie

    Mains gas is reticulated by Jemena through the established suburbs out this way, so most of the fifties and sixties cottages here already have a service at the front. That is why gas storage and continuous flow are so common on the detached housing, with electric storage holding on in the streets gas never reached.

    Space is the deciding factor more often than fuel type. The original cottages sit on blocks of 550 to 700 square metres with room down the side, which makes almost anything possible including a heat pump. The townhouses and duplexes that now make up better than a fifth of the suburb are a tighter proposition, and the apartment stock that replaced houses near the station runs electric storage in cupboards built to a fixed size. Three different suburbs, really, sharing one postcode.

    Hot water work we do in Toongabbie

    Repairs come first in volume: thermocouples, gas valves, elements, thermostats and relief valves. Then changeovers, where a system is replaced like for like, and conversions, where the type changes and the brackets, pipework, flue and drain all have to change with it.

    The background detail sits on the hot water systems page. Anything touching the gas line, including a new run to a relocated unit, falls under gas fitting and is included rather than sent to a second trade.

    Why locals call us back

    The quote covers the whole job, including the parts people forget to mention. Brackets, a relocated connection, a new flue path, the tempering valve and taking the old unit away are inside the figure, not bolted on later.

    And the site gets left clean. No old cylinder standing by the bins waiting for a council pickup you have to organise yourself.

    Common questions

    Is continuous flow gas genuinely better than a storage tank, or just newer?
    It is different rather than automatically better. Continuous flow heats water as it passes, so it never sits there losing heat and it does not run out the way a tank does. What it has instead is a flow limit, so several outlets at once can pull the temperature down. A storage tank handles simultaneous use better but has a finite amount in it. Which suits you depends on how the household actually uses water.
    We cook with gas but the hot water is electric. Is switching worth doing?
    Often yes, because the expensive part is already done. A gas service at the meter means no new connection is needed, just a run to wherever the unit will sit and the right flue arrangement. That is a much smaller job than bringing gas to a house that has never had it, where the cost rarely stacks up for hot water alone.
    What actually decides the size of a continuous flow unit?
    The number of outlets likely to run at the same time, not the number of people in the house. Two showers and a kitchen tap together is the usual worst case, and the unit gets sized to carry that without the temperature sagging. Bathroom count is the quickest guide, which is why it gets asked early.
    Our townhouse has a two metre side passage. What will fit in that?
    Quite a lot, with some thought. A compact gas unit or a slim storage cylinder will usually sit in that space provided the flue clearances work and access is kept. A heat pump is the harder one, because it needs air movement around the fan and the neighbour's wall is right there. It comes down to the specific passage, which is why it gets looked at rather than guessed.
    Does a bigger storage tank mean higher running costs?
    A little, since a larger volume is being held at temperature, but modern insulation makes that difference smaller than people assume. The bigger cost is having a tank too small for the household, because that means reheating constantly and still running out. Sizing it properly usually beats sizing it down.
