In a semi‑rural area like Bloomfleet, most homes are separate houses with three or four bedrooms, so hot water demand is steady, especially for families and tradies. Hot water can easily account for a quarter of household energy use, so choosing the most efficient hot water system has a big impact. Locally, we see a mix of electric hot water vs gas hot water, with more people now asking about solar hot water vs electric hot water and heat pump vs solar hot water to work out what suits their roof space, budget and tariff.
Typical savings for Bloomfleet homes moving to an energy efficient hot water system look like this:
• Old electric to heat pump hot water system: save about $350–$700 per year on bills. • Gas storage to heat pump: save roughly $250–$600 per year. • Gas to solar hot water system: save around $250–$550 per year. • Old electric to modern electric hot water installation with good rooftop solar: save about $200–$500 per year.
