There are a number of factors you need to consider when choosing a hot water system. According to the experts, choosing a hot water system for most people will depend on the upfront purchase and installation costs, but over time the increase in price of non-renewable energy sources has shifted the focus to ongoing running costs. A worthwhile exercise is to compare hot water systems energy sources, as this can make a massive difference to the overall running costs. The following graph illustrates how renewable energy hot water systems save over time.

Another important part of your decision will be whether you need a storage hot water system or a continuous flow hot water system (instantaneous water)  This decision will be affected by the size of your family, the purchase costs, efficiency and running costs and life expectancy of the hot water system.
