How Electric Hot Water Products Work
Electric storage systems heat and store water inside an insulated tank using an internal electric element.
Hot water is kept ready for use and reheated automatically as needed.
While electric systems generally cost more to run than gas or heat pumps, they offer:
-
Simple design
-
Lower upfront cost
-
Easy replacement
-
Straightforward installation
-
Reliable operation
For many homes, they remain the most practical solution.
When Electric Hot Water Makes Sense
Electric products are often the right choice if you:
✔ Need an affordable replacement
✔ Want a quick changeover
✔ Don’t have natural gas available
✔ Have limited installation space
✔ Have lower daily hot water use
✔ Use off-peak (J-tariff) electricity
They are commonly used in apartments, units and smaller households.
