How do gas storage hot water systems work?

  • 1 Cold water travels into the tank via pressure
  • 2 The cold water is heated by heating elements through electricity
  • 3 As the water heats up, it rises to the top of the tank where it is tapped off for use around the house

Most hot water tanks have a thermostat built in to set the water temperature. As the water gains more pressure while being heated, a temperature and pressure valve, and an overflow pipe allows excess water to leak out. This way the tank will not be damaged from excessive pressure.

Types Of Storage Tanks

Mild steel ​

Most tanks are made with mild steel and is not entirely waterproof. This means any exposed steel can still be corroded so a sacrificial anode is installed in these tanks.

Sacrificial anode refers to an aluminium/magnesium wrapped steel core wire which will corrode in place of the tank – hence ‘sacrificial’. However, once the rod is entirely corroded, other steels parts of the tank will start to rust. The sacrificial anode is replaced every 5 years to prevent major tank faults.

Stainless steel​

Designed to withstand weather and other environmental impacts to prevent corrosion which also means it does not have a sacrificial anode to deal with corrosion concerns. Generally, this means stainless steel tanks are more expensive than mild steel ones.

Electric vs Gas

Electric

  • 1 Relatively cheap to setup however more expensive to run
  • 2 Can be installed indoors or outdoors with no other requirements
  • 3 Off-peak electricity is much cheaper to run but require a larger tank to be heated to last you all day (some homes don’t have access to off-peak electricity)
  • 4 Electric ignition is more economical, but in a blackout, you can lose your hot water supply.

Gas

  • 1 Cheaper than electricity to run
  • 2 Usually installed outdoors for ventilation requirements but can also be installed indoors with a flue
  • 3 Liquid petroleum gas (LPG) bottles can be used instead of natural – however running costs would increase
  • 4 Gas water heaters have an energy efficiency star rating

Absolute first class service from start to finish. Thank you very much for a great customer experience. My recommendation to for anyone needing any air conditioning service do not look anywhere in else, use Alliance Climate Control.
I recently contacted Alliance Climate Control to replace/upgrade an old ducted reverse cycle system in the family home. The degree of professionalism was very high right from the first enquiry, including all follow up confirmations and booked home... visits. After reaching agreement, the installation was arranged quite quickly and carried out meticulously. Well done and a big thank you to Ian, Andrea, Mario and Sam, for completing that installation work and having to contend with a bunch of people either working from home or studying.read more
I had Kevin, Jonathan, Mina, and Aiden come and install a new ducted system into my house today. Not only were they all very friendly and professional they explained everything and cleaned up at the end of the day like they weren’t even here. They... were all COVID safe and wore masks throughout the install. I would definitely recommend Alliance to anyone wanting any type of air conditioning system. Thanks again 🙂read more

Adrian made a number of required repairs, installed new led light fittings and a number of other electircal upgrades.

Excellent professional service from the initial contact through to delivery and installation. Jamie Lee was very helpful on how we wanted to deal with a replacement split system for our old unit and gave us a quote to cover the whole job.... Technicians BJ and Sam had a great attitude and dealt with a small change to the original plan I requested on site with absolutely no fuss. I happily recommend this service.read more
We had multiple air conditioning companies come out to advise if and how we could install an additional head unit downstairs in our two storey, double brick apartment without using any conduit.The answer from all of them was it could not be done.... We then finally called Alliance, they came out, spent time measuring and then confirmed it could be completed with some core drilling through the slab, etc etc.Anyway D'day arrived on Monday and we were super nervous, however BJ the head installer was awesome and he did an incredible job. He could have taken the easy way out but he didn't, and we are so happy with it.Some may say it was expensive compared to a traditional install of a spilt system but we say it was worth every penny - you pay for what you get.We did have a little hiccup when they core drilled as unfortunately they cut through the antenna and internet but this was fixed the same day by their electrician.We have already recommended them to our neighbours who have booked them in and to the rest of the owners in our complex. We highly recommend them to anyone, even more so if you have a difficult install!read more
Installers arrived on time. Very courteous and professional. Cleaned up after the installation. Highly recommended.
On 5 March 2021, I had a brand new air conditioner split system from Fujitsu supplied and installed by Alliance Climate Control in the room of my younger brother. The names of the technicians were Shadi Darmo and Christian. Both were extremely... professional, polite, kind and were experts at removing the old air conditioner and fitting and installing and testing properly the new one. I was very impressed with the quality of work performed as the new air conditioner is working fine and there are no problems so far whatsoever. I will highly recommend other customers thinking of buying and installing a new air conditioner to strongly consider using Alliance Climate Control as I will be using them again because in the recent past, they also did a DEEP CLEAN of the split system Mitsubishi air conditioner in my room which is about 5+ years old and now I feel like I am in Antarctica based on the improved performance after the thorough service as the cool air blowing is THAT much colder and more forceful than ever, exactly like a brand new product. Thanks to the Alliance Team for their punctuality, excellent pricing and quality workmanship.read more

Hot Water Systems Helpful Tips

Regardless of which hot water system you invested in, tankless or storage – it is a big investment that you’d want to take good care of so it lasts 8-12 years in your home. 

Plus, no one wants to run out of hot water in the middle of a shower especially during winter. So, here are some helpful tips to make sure that doesn’t happen.

Regular check-ups

Surely, you’ve heard the saying “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”. This basically refers to not bothering something that is working on something that is working ‘just fine’. However, this philosophy doesn’t apply to mechanical and electrical appliances that can actually breakdown – like your hot water systems.

 

Hot water systems when left alone for too long with minor issues may need major repairs or even a replacement in the long run. Generally, it is wise to check on your electrical appliances on a monthly basis. It would only take you 5-10 minutes to inspect each appliance. For your hot water system, check the unit from top to bottom and look for any leakage, cracks, rust or other physical signs of concern.

Pressure Valve

Every 6 months, you need to make sure that your system’s pressure valve is still working well. This is designed to relief any excess pressure within the hot water system. Depending on the type of system you have, each check is slightly different so make sure you locate and understand the tank’s manual before proceeding with this task.

If you are not confident with this task, schedule in a routine maintenance with your plumber and while they are on-site they will be able to demonstrate this procedure to you.

Hot Water Holiday

If you are going to be away for a long period of time (over a week), make sure you turn off your hot water system. This way, you won’t need to come back from your holiday with a surprise from your energy bill! While you are away, the hot water system will continue to heat water although no one is home to enjoy the hot water. So make sure this is part of your checklist before you rush to the airport.

Efficient Showerheads

The traditional showerheads that are installed in most homes uses around 15-25 litres per minute. Whereas a water saving showerhead (WELS rated) uses between 6 to 9 litres per minute without restricting the water flow. This means a water efficient showerhead can save you more than 63 litres of water for a 7-minute shower.

Tank Temperature

Hot water tanks only need a temperature of 60° to maintain healthy hot water to limit the growth of microorganisms in your tank. During your next maintenance, ask your electrician/plumber to check the temperature is nothing higher than 60° and your wallet will thank you for reducing the hot water running costs.

Sacrifice The Anode Not Your Tank

If you have never scheduled a maintenance for your hot water tank and it is over 5 years old, chances are you may be looking at some major damage. Is there any rust around your water tank? That’s because the sacrificial anode – the metal rod built into the middle of the water tank with the purpose of drawing minerals to itself so it can rust instead of the tank. Replacing your sacrificial anode regularly (every 5 years) will make sure your tank’s life extend by another 5-10 years.
