Hot Water System Types We Install
Gas Continuous Flow (Instantaneous)
Heats water on demand — no storage tank, endless hot water, energy-efficient. Popular choice for Melbourne households. Brands include Rinnai, Rheem, Bosch, Dux, and AquaMax.
Gas Storage
Traditional gas storage tanks are lower upfront cost and simple to maintain. Available in 90L to 315L capacities.
Electric Storage
Lower purchase price, simple installation, but higher running costs. Best used with an off-peak tariff to reduce electricity bills.
Heat Pump
Uses ambient air to heat water — significantly more efficient than electric storage. Eligible for VEU rebates and STCs in Melbourne. Brands include Sanden, Reclaim, and Rheem.
Solar Hot Water
Solar collectors on the roof heat water directly, with gas or electric boost for cloudy days. High upfront cost but lowest running costs long-term.
Which Hot Water System is Best for Melbourne?
For most Melbourne households, gas continuous flow or heat pump systems offer the best balance of performance and running cost. Heat pumps are increasingly popular due to government rebates reducing upfront cost. See our hot water system cost guide for a full comparison.
Same-Day Hot Water Replacement Available
If your system has failed, we understand you need hot water fast. Sedcon Plumbing offers same-day replacement for most system failures — we carry common units on the van or can source and install your chosen model the same day in most cases.
