Best Electric Water Heaters

Quality installation done as per arrangement. Just installed but appears to be a good unit. Show details

I had this unit installed in June 2022 and it has been performing flawlessly! It was the last gas appliance at the premise and costs savings have… Read more

been great. 4 years in we have seen small surface rust appearing on the connection from rain/condensation but I hear this is to be expected as the metals are dissimilar which causes galvanic corrosion. This is wear and tear and connectors should be replaced every 5 years so will do that soon. Overall we are happy with the unit and recommend it.

Great product with excellent service installation and operation. Prompt delivery. Show details

Be VERY VERY wary of this product. I have been having issues with my hot water system for 2 weeks. I have called their service department several… Read more

times and each time was promised some one would be here shortly. 2 weeks still nothing. They are happy to take your money but after sales service they really don’t want to know about. Be very way

We’ve always had Dux hot water systems we are very happy Show details

The unit has been installed for a month now. So far so good. The savings against my old gas HWS is amazing. I’d read of the energy efficiency of heat… Read more

pump based HWS units before, but the lived-in reality surprised my expectations. With the Emerald EE-HWS-A1-320E, I am averaging 40c a day in electricity charges to heat water, previously on gas, that was around $2 per day.

The Emerald app is easy to understand and use. The only negative is that it doesn’t allow you to customise the electricity tariff rates, so if you have a plan that is not the typical plan, eg one of those EV-night plans, you can’t accurately enter your rate details. Emerald should consider adding a feature for customers to enter their own time of day rates in a future software update.

Glad to switch to this Reclaim system. Had this installed a month ago by Atomic Hot Water in Sydney. We are a family of 3 and purchased the 315 litre… Read more

stainless steel tank V2 heat pump. We have it programmed From 10.00am to 4pm as we have solar panels. Works like a dream with plenty of hot water. We expect significant savings as we now have switched off the gas as this was the last item connected to gas.

Smart looking Heat pump, quite running and seems to be runnning well Show details

Very happy with the new heat pump, the installer has done professional work! Show details

I replaced an Instant Gas hot water system with an Aether 270 unit. Installation occured on time on the date scheduled. Installer provided quick… Read more

instructions how to operate the unit. We set the water temperature for 55 deg & it has been providing water at that temperature eversince. We are most happy so far with the Aether unit.

Sanden 315L heat pump 10 years old and broken down. No support over the phone. Manufacturer insists service can only be conducted by registered… Read more

dealer who isn’t available anyway - a requirement illegal under consumer law. Very disappointing for such an expensive product.

Had an issue with our 3 year old heat pump, contacted the Apricus service dept. The response was very positive and an excellent outcome. Great service from an Aussie company. The unit is extremely efficient and compliments our solar system. Show details

Excellent service from NeoPower. Our heat pump hot water system had a PCB board issue, and a technician arrived within 40 minutes of the call. The problem was resolved quickly and professionally. Highly recommend the NeoPower team.

Previous experience with Stiebel Eltron products was good. I had nominated them previously for many residential projects. Yes I'm a designer. I… Read more

purchased one of these units 4 years ago. I was disappointed to find out how noisy it was. The unit failed with in a 2 year period. It was replaced under warranty in March 2024. The second unit was about as noisy as the first. I don't believe the SPL information is accurate. The units make much more noise than the levels nominated in the manual. The second (replacement) unit has now had the Temperature & Pressure Relief Valve fail. Stiebel Eltron have informed me without inspecting the property that the valve failed because the mains pressure was too high . They suggested 850 KPA as the level that probably made the valve fail. In any event the T & P relief valve has a 12 month warranty so they can't do anything about changing it. What should I think about that?

A business is only as good as it's reputation. I would like to give them less than one star but it wouldn't make me feel any different.

Great product, looks amazing. Havent had any hot water issues since getting this installed. Show details

Switched from gas to the Econova Hot Water Heat Pump and it is the best thing I have done. Installation was organised by professional plumber and… Read more

electrician. The system is working better than my old hot water unit, had 4 friends stay at my place and never ran out of hot water. My bills are lower very happy, highly recommend.

Purchased a 420 2 weeks ago. It has operated flawlessly. It provides huge quantities of hot water. Our family of 6 has not stretched it. It is… Read more

also nice and quiet. We bought it due to capacity, top quality components (eg high grade stainless steel tank), long warranty and no need to replace anode every few years. Value for money is exceptional. We use our solar to run it so electricity cost is nil. Very happy with it.

A lot of people have issues with the Wilson Super x. They don't work well with modern outlets that restrict pressure . Restrictions and aerator… Read more

should be removed as these units work on water pressure to activate and stay on . Turn you hot on full and then adjust with your cold . If your still having issues the either your cold water pressure is to low or one of your electric phases is out or not producing at full capacity....

You're Rolling the Dice Here – I've seen a lot of these units (very popular) and the design and layout is very good - simple and elegant. The problem is the manufacture quality,… Read more

which Rheem don't seem to manage well. On mine the welding on the heater flange is VERY poor, causing it to fail and leak just on the 7 year warranty (I don't think 7 years is awesome for a tank with wires connected to it - I've had gas ones that have done 4 times that). So it's not inherently terrible - if you get one that was made by the good welder it would be great, but how would you know?

Excellent savings and operation – Have had one now for several months and have found it to be excellent. Has saved me heaps on hot water electricity bills. I have now also adjusted… Read more

the time settings on it so that it heats in the middle of the day, for when the peak heat of the day is available (eg drawing heat from the environment), and also so that our solar PV system generates power to cover its use. It seems to be very efficient.

The Haier Heat Pump heat the water to 55 degrees with its compressor in a very effective way. It consumes much lesser energy than by my old water boiler. Besides, I can use its ECO mode to set the preferred time of operations. Good value for money! Show details

Great unit but the manufacturer should have put better grids on the outer casing. We have lots of wasps that build clay nests to lay there… Read more

eggs/larvae around our house. They can easily enter through the grids on our new unit. It has only taken a few days and we can already see wasps visiting. We now have to buy and make a fly screen barrier to block them off

Great most of the time (but some quality control issues) – This heat pump water heater works well when it works but there are clearly quality control issues which affect the operation of the unit in the… Read more

Australian environment. This unit has failed twice - the first within the warranty period (a faulty seal and heating element) and the second just outside (but still covered by consumer law) being a faulty sensor.

The good news is the service department is responsive and they have a local plumber who can get to the unit quickly. But make sure you have those contact details handy. The first time this unit failed, it took three days for my plumber and the plumbing wholesaler to track down how to get repairs under way.

Note that my unit is now five years old. I hope that the current generation has addressed the quality issues.

Excellent water heater!!! – Hot water anytime, no noise at all, highly recommended for families. Show details

New hot water system installed 02/09/2025 and is going great so far with no issues. Recommended by plumber who has been amazing. Show details

Unit installed May 2024, no problems in the interim. Power usage fine since install, noise much quieter than prior unit...install was good at the time. Just had to lodge a service call as pressure valve not functioning last couple of days. Show details

Great service from these guys! – I have a MicroHeat heater that acts as a booster to our Sanden heat pump, since that heat pump is such a long way from our bathroom. It works really… Read more

well - gives near instant heat when we turn the shower on, then powers back as the Sanden hot water comes through. However, after 4 years it stopped working! I was worried since the stated warranty is only 3 years. But MicroHeat replaced the unit with no squabbles. A replacement unit arrived in the mail very promptly and they even covered the cost of the electrician and plumber! This is great service from a small Aussie company. Thank you guys!

Last week, our water heater stopped working, which caused us a lot of inconvenience. I placed an online order with JR Gas and Water, and this week we… Read more

were able to enjoy hot water again. They installed a Stiebel Eltron water heater, and the entire process was excellent. The online ordering was very easy and fast, and the price was reasonable. The installation was handled neatly and professionally, and I’m very thankful for their service. I sincerely recommend JR Gas and Water to others.

We are completely off grid, and this system has been brilliant so far! December marks two years in our new house, and despite my partner’s best… Read more

efforts, we have never run out of hot water yet! Our solar system consists of 42 panels and 2 lithium batteries, and even on dreary old days it keeps up with the system well. My hair super light blond hair showed some copper deposits from the water, so I contacted Reece about that. They put me in contact with their water specialist who called me straight away, asked all the right questions and came up with a great plan for me straight away. Super happy with the service and the system!

Ballina Hot Water Specialists installed this unit for us in Northern NSW. This review is more about the business than the system they installed… Read more

(that will follow). Ballina Hot Water Specialists were excellent from start to finish. Dane was clearly more concerned about me getting value for money than them making a profit. They made sure they extended the life of my old system as long as they could before replacing it. I cannot speak highly enough about them, their prompy response and support, clean and efficient work, everyhting we asked and hoped for and finished the job well inside the allocated time frame. Also, excellent pricing (and I was prepared to overlook any variance in return for the high service level, but they came in as Best value as well. If your in this area, look no further.
