In a postcode with more than 8,400 occupied private dwellings and a high proportion of separate houses, hot water demand is steady, from busy family homes through to downsizers who still want reliable, affordable hot showers. Many households are weighing up heat pump vs solar hot water, or solar hot water vs electric hot water, to find the most efficient hot water system for their situation. Modern electric hot water system options can also work well when matched with rooftop PV and off‑peak tariffs, especially if you want to fully electrify and move away from gas hot water.
Average annual bill savings in Yadboro will vary with usage, tariff and roof orientation, but typical ranges look like:
• Replacing an old electric hot water system with a heat pump hot water system: around $350–$700 per year. • Switching from gas to a heat pump hot water system: roughly $250–$600 per year. • Switching from gas to a solar hot water system: around $200–$550 per year. • Upgrading an old electric hot water system to a modern electric hot water system and using excess solar: about $200–$450 per year.
