What is an Electric Hot Water System and how does it operate?
Electric hot water storage systems consist of a water heater tank and an electric element that is used for heating. The element automatically heats the cold water that is stored in the tank until it reaches a set temperature, at which time it switches off.
The stored hot water is then available to use whenever you need it. When the stored hot water has been used, the tank automatically refills and the electric element begins to heat the replenished tank once more, meaning that you are never caught short without access to hot water.
At Aquatek Plumbing & Gas, we are experienced experts in electric hot water system repairs and installations in Adelaide. Please feel free to contact us on (08) 8123 3535 if you have any questions regarding your electric hot water system.
Is an electric hot water system right for my property?
Electric hot water systems are popular in Adelaide households and they are the cheapest to supply and install in comparison to the other hot water systems. If you do not have gas connected to your property, the most economical option is to choose an electric hot water system for your home.
Depending on your hot water needs and the size of your family, there are different tank options available starting from as small as 25 litres to 250 litres maximum capacity. One downside of electric storage tanks is the running costs are higher compared to other hot water systems. If you only have electricity on your property, but would like to save on running costs and have an energy efficient hot water system, a heat pump is a great alternative.
We understand there is a lot to consider when choosing the right hot water system, and it can feel a little overwhelming. That’s why we provide you with all the professional advice you need to make the best choice for your home and budget.
Benefits of Electric Hot Water Systems in Adelaide
One of the benefits of an electric hot water system is that you can program it to only heat water during off-peak and low tariff times, this keeps your electricity costs to a minimum. You can also set a maximum water temperature, so there is no risk that the water in your bathroom or kitchen will be too hot to be used safely.
- Same footprint when replacing a like-for-like unit, saving money on replacement costs
- Most affordable unit to purchase
- Lower tariffs are often available during off-peak times
- When installed on an off-peak tariff, high chance of running out of hot water during heavy-load
- Emissions are very high
- They Won’t Work During Power Outages
Troubleshooting your electric hot water heater
If you have no hot water, or only warm water is running from your electric hot water tank, this is usually caused by a failed heating element or thermostat or both.
The element and thermostat can be easily replaced if your tank is in good condition. However, we do not recommend repairs for hot water tanks older than 10 years because a repair may not fix the issue. A replacement is a better option and guarantees an efficient hot water supply for the ongoing future.
Other problems may be due to improper settings, no power supply (check if any fuses switched on your circuit board), high water pressure at your home, or a lack of tank maintenance including changing hot and cold valves and reliefs valves, which should be replaced every five years. Regular tank maintenance helps to avoid hot water interruptions and can extend the lifespan of your electric hot water system.
