Choosing the right hot water system on the Sunshine Coast

The best system depends on:

• Household size
• Water usage patterns
• Available energy source
• Installation location and ventilation
• Budget and long-term running costs

Queensland conditions and coastal air can also impact system longevity, so choosing the right unit matters.

Types Of Hot Water Systems

Electric hot water systems

Electric systems are cost-effective to install and suitable for smaller homes, units and apartments. While upfront costs are lower, running costs may be higher for larger households.

Gas hot water systems

Gas hot water systems offer faster recovery and lower operating costs. They’re ideal for larger families and continue operating during power outages, which can be helpful during storms on the Sunshine Coast.

Solar hot water systems

With over 280 sunny days each year, solar hot water systems can significantly reduce energy bills. Most systems include a booster to ensure reliable performance during cloudy periods.

Heat pump hot water systems

Heat pump systems are energy efficient and suitable for households wanting lower long-term running costs without full solar installation.

I can’t speak highly enough of Jonty. He came by to check out an issue with my toilet and didn’t charge me, saying he didn’t feel right taking payment since there was nothing that actually needed fixing. He was also great with scheduling initially too which I really appreciated. Jonty is a genuinely good guy and a truly honest tradie – I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

Jonty from Ripple plumbing and Gas were amazing fixing a leak at my house. Ive sent a message late night and he managed to squeeze me in and fixed the problem straight away. Very honest and reliable, as we were not at home at the time he came, he did what he said he was going to do without adding things to make our bill enormous. Definitely recommend him and use his services again for sure. Thanks Jonty!!!

Jonty was able to squeeze me into his day to move a hot water system for the tiler to tile underneath, and came back the next day to move it back and adjust the plumbing to suit.

While there, Jonty inspected and fixed our low water pressure issue and replaced parts to make it work perfectly.

Jonty also made sure to explain how the systems and plumbing processes work so if it happens again we can understand the problem and possibly fix it ourselves.

Jonty was great to have around and I will definitely be going with Ripple Plumbing & Gas for any future work. No issues whatsoever.

We enquired with Jonty from Ripple Plumbing and Gas for a full house filtration system. He was very knowledgeable regarding the water quality and what water filters we should have at our house. He explained why we should have the certain filters we needed.
We wanted to have the full house filtration system match our external colour of our house. His filters come with many different colours which we were happy with.
He was great with communication throughout the process of the job.
Very good regarding pricing and great quality filters.
Highly recommend Jonty from Ripple Plumbing and Gas for any of your water filtration needs.

Ripple plumbing and gas did an INCREDIBLE job on an outdoor shower for us. They took an idea I sent them and made it come to life with ease. Even down to the little details of placement and making sure the shower head was exactly what we wanted and a quality one, everything was perfect.
Couldn’t recommend them highly enough!!
