Bosch is undoubtedly one of the leading brands of water heaters in the market today and boasts excellent energy efficiency ratings. This enables Bosch water heaters to provide significant savings on running costs daily and preserves the environment too.
In the past, most New Zealand homes have chosen storage tanks as their hot water system. Today, Bosch is changing the way households use hot water – offering the widest range of continuous flow hot water systems.
Why Choose Bosch?
The recent influx of continuous flow hot water systems provides an efficient and cost-effective alternative to traditional gas and electric storage units. If you’re building a new home, renovating, or merely replacing your existing hot water system, Bosch is the right brand for the job. When it comes to hot water systems, Bosch offers a gas continuous flow water heater to suit your every need.
Bosch continuous flow systems only heat enough water for your every need, so you’ll never run out of hot water. Your entire household can shower at the same time and enjoy hot water instead of enduring a cold shower!
Continuous flow hot water systems occupy less space as compared with traditional storage hot water units. They can easily be mounted outside or, if you want, you can conveniently install internal systems in a cupboard (flueing required).
Electronic continuous flow systems can also provide you with a precise temperature adjustment feature using a temperature controller.
Here are the advantages you will enjoy when you choose to install a Bosch continuous flow hot water system:
- Heat water only as required
- Never run out of hot water
- Save money on energy costs
- Space-saving, compact design
- Precise temperature control* giving parents added peace of mind for their children’s safety
- Extensive range of accessories to add to the appearance of your home
Here are the disadvantages of installing a Bosch continuous flow hot water system:
- There is some delay before the water is sufficiently heated to the right temperature
- More water is wasted
- It is not suitable for households with high hot water needs
Here are a few things to consider when choosing the right hot water system for your home:
How many bathrooms does your home have?
Bosch continuous flow gas hot water systems provide hot water at the turn of a tap. However, we recognise that there are times where heavy usage occurs. For example, in busy morning times, there may be more than one shower operating at the same time. It is important to select a hot water unit with a capacity to suit your household’s needs.
A two- or three-bathroom home will require a larger system, such as a Bosch 26e.
What type of Bosch Hot Water unit is right for you?
If your home has one bathroom, a Bosch 17e or 21e may be suitable. For 2-3-bathroom homes in colder climates, Bosch recommend a larger hot water system, such as a 26e.
Is there a spa bath* or large bath installed in the home?
Bosch recommends the 26e or 32 litre unit be installed in homes with a spa bath* or large bath in order to manage the larger volume of hot water required to fill the baths.
What is the distance to the bathroom and other hot water outlets in the home?
It is most efficient to have the hot water system installed in a location closer to the outlets used most frequently such as the shower or kitchen. This helps to reduce the time it takes for the hot water to reach the outlets.
