5 Benefits of Gas Water Heating

A water heating system is very important, especially during cold season like New Zealand. It makes your home more comfortable during colder seasons. That is why it is very important to have a reliable and fully functional water heating system in your home. 

If you are on the process of building or remodeling your house and part of it is updating your water heating system, then you should consider using a gas water heating system. 

What is gas water heating? And how does it work?

 

The water that you use in your shower, dishwasher, washing machine or in your faucet travels through a system of pipes. And during the cold season, the water in these pipes becomes too cold to be used for bathing, dish washing or machine washing. That is why people install water heaters to make their water warm and easy to use. 

There are a lot of kinds of water heaters. And one of them is the gas water heating system. Unlike the usual electric heating system, a gas water heater doesn’t have heating elements. It only uses a gas burner located at the bottom of the tank and a chimney running through the middle of the tank. 

But the question is, is gas water heating system better than the normal electric heaters? 

If you are considering the remodeling of your heating system, then you might consider using gas water heaters with these benefits. 

Benefits of using gas water heating system

Gas water heaters work twice as fast as electric heaters. They also recover fast than electric models. This means that your hot water supply gets replenished faster. That is why gas water heaters are recommended to bigger households with a high demand for hot water. So if you have a big home or have a high demand for hot water, a gas water heater is the best choice for you. 

2. It is more affordable

Electric heater models use electricity to function. That is why you get high electricity bill during the cold season because your electric heater is working double time. On the other hand, gas water heaters only use natural gas and propane that are more affordable than electricity. Customarily, it is ⅓ more affordable than using electric models. So if you want to save on using your heating system, go for gas water heaters. 

3. It is easy to install 

A gas water heater is easier to install than the electric model. Moreover, if you already have a gas line in your home, then it will be a lot easier to install a gas water heating system. Because of this, you can readily use it after installation. 

4. You get cleaner water

Gas water heaters boil freshwater from pipes, while electric or ordinary water heaters are store in the tank that has the tendency to rush and collect hard deposits. Moreover, when the tank of electric heater gets old, the quality of water declines.

Another Successful Rheem Gas 27

When you are looking for a new continuous flow gas water heater you can’t go wrong with installing a Rheem 27. Rheem has long been a brand at the forefront of water heating technology and the 27 doesn’t disappoint. One of our latest installs was for a customer who had chosen a Rheem 27. What was involved? The installation of the new Rheem 27 was completed on the outside of our customers’ home. First, our technician drained and disconnected the existing two hot water cylinders. Then new pavers were laid alongside the exterior wall of the home and made level with the existing concrete. Then, the downpipe was sealed around the gas bottle location. The Rheem 27 was tested and the cold flow was adjusted to the shower.     The Rheem 27 is compact in design which is perfect when there isn’t a lot of space. Unlike traditional water heaters that take up space in a hall cupboard and heat and store water for the household to use, the Rheem 27 heats cold water as it passes through the unit. If you have long showers, or a large family drawing lots of water through showers, baths, the laundry and kitchen, traditional water heaters can run out of hot water. They then take upto 3 hours to fill and reheat the stored water. The Rheem 27 will virtually never run out of hot water. The Rheem 27 has an “IQ” function – this allows the unit to identify when there is a disparity in the water temperature and even the temperature out. This is especially important when there is frequent use of hot water. Rheem has developed and installed as part of the 27 unit a “Flame Safe” protection system. This is unique to Rheem products and provides enhanced consumer protection and built in safety. There is a digital display which displays any error codes for easy fault diagnosis and service reminders. If aesthetics is important to you or if the only place to install your Rheem 27 is viewable from the road, then Rheem has an optional recess box available which allows for installation into a wall cavity. There is also an optional pipe skirt available which allows for cover of the gas pipes for a more pleasing look. What other benefits are there to installing a Rheem 27? • The Rheem 27 has an economical 2 litre per minute start up rate. • The Rheem 27 reduces water wastage and works best with water efficient tapware. • The Rheem 27 has a 5.6 star energy efficiency rating • The Rheem 27 allows indoor installations in a central location which minimises pipe runs • The Rheem 27 has a 3 year warranty on parts and labour You too could enjoy a shower that never ends if you buy a Rheem 27 online and have it installed at your home.

Rheem 27 Upgrade For Customer In Rotorua

We had a customer contact us with an old heat pump hot water cylinder which had failed, and they wanted something new to heat their water. We thought the Rheem 27 unit would fit their needs perfectly. As natural gas was available, we decided to go with the Rheem 27 Natural Gas unit to provide their hot water. The Rheem 27 is a very popular choice for people wanting to go with gas to heat their water, whether NG or LPG. Making very good use of the gas, being an extremely efficient and reliable unit, you get a lot of “bang for your buck”. After our gas fitting completed the system, he performed a test which gave results of static gas pressure 3.1kpa working pressure 2.6kpa, which is within the requirements. It also required drilling into the brick wall, not the usual concrete to install this unit. Are you interested in a Rheem 27 for your home?
