■ Hot water central heating is a method of heating your house for a warm, dry, healthy home. Providing huge convenience and control, not only does it look smart, it gives a huge saving on space, time and money compared with a traditional wood fireplace. Forget about chopping and stacking that firewood!
The freedom and ability to control the heat throughout the entire home has been another major factor in people choosing to switch to this system. You can place your heating on a timer, so that you can wake up or come home to a warm and cosy house. Each room can be controlled individually meaning that everyone gets to be in their own preferred comfort levels.
More technical options can be added to your control systems if desired. Wi-Fi and mobile device apps can be an option for the tech savvy, so your heating system knows when you are on your way home. Instantaneous hot water systems provide on demand, limitless hot water supply, at mains pressure to ensure that nobody is left fighting for the last drop of hot water.
This is a highly efficient means of heating the water, you are only heating the water you need, not a whole cylinder. This also means that households see savings of hundreds of dollars per month on power bills. Space saving comes as an added bonus. The fact the appliance is small and will be mounted outdoors means you can get rid of that hot water cylinder and use the cupboard for something more useful.
Installations of the hot water systems can be carried out within less than one day and with extremely low disturbance to the home.
