Choose the right solution for your home

Heat Pump Hot Water

Modernise your home's hot water system with a heat pump water heater, perfect for New Zealand's diverse climates. By efficiently utilising ambient air, it not only reduces energy consumption but also brings significant savings to your power bills. Using modern refrigerants, these eco-friendly solutions ensure year-round reliability. Enjoy the benefits of a quiet operation, low maintenance, and potential government incentives. Make the savvy choice for a sustainable and cost-effective hot water solution for your home.

Electric Storage

In New Zealand, electric hot water cylinders are the prevalent choice for water heating. Comprising an insulated tank (copper, stainless steel, or vitreous enamel-lined steel), cold water enters, heated by an electric element to 60oC+. When hot water is needed, it's drawn from the tank's top, replenished with cold water at the bottom. Common sizes are 135l or 180l for standard homes, 250l and 300l for larger residences. Configurable for mains or low pressure, tailored to household needs.

Gas Storage

Mains pressure gas storage water heaters provide hot water by storing a substantial quantity at the ready. Select a capacity that fits your family size and hot water requirements. Designed for indoor installation and connected exclusively to Natural Gas, these cylinders ensure a reliable supply of hot water with faster recovery than electric element heaters - tailored to your household's needs. Choose efficiency and convenience for your home's hot water solution with mains pressure gas storage heaters.

Gas Continuous Flow

Gas continuous flow water heaters diverge from traditional storage units by heating water only when needed, avoiding the storage of pre-heated water. Easily mounted or recessed into exterior walls, they save space, making them ideal for homes with occasional high demand or for holiday homes. These efficient heaters offer on-demand hot water, providing a convenient and space-saving solution for various applications, using either Natural Gas or LPG.

Electric Continuous Flow

Experience uninterrupted hot water with Electric continuous flow water heaters. Much like Gas continuous flow water heaters, these innovative appliances deliver hot water on demand, eliminating the need for a storage tank - without the need for a gas connection. Enjoy a continuous flow of hot water, instantly achieving your desired temperature for showers or dishwashing. Say goodbye to waiting and enjoy the convenience of hot water whenever you need it.

Solar Water Heaters

Solar hot water systems offer a sustainable solution for eco-conscious households and buildings aiming to reduce both their carbon footprint and energy costs. Harnessing solar power, these systems use renewable energy to heat water for daily use. Employing evacuated tubes or flat plate collectors on the roof, solar energy is captured and transferred to a storage tank via a circulating pump or coiled heat exchanger. Stainless steel cylinders, durable and corrosion-resistant, are common, with size tailored to hot water consumption and collector size. While more environmentally friendly than electric or gas systems, a backup, usually an electric element, ensures a consistent hot water supply, addressing performance dependency on weather conditions.
