ORDERING SUBURBAN HOT WATER HEATER


I's time. Yep the time has arrived to ring the fitter man to order the replacement water heater that will take over from the Girrard Instant one.

I'm looking at the SW4DEA Gas/Electric. It has 15.1lt. I am solo with no plans to change. 

Does anyone use this HWS and do you reckon 15.1lts is enough. 

Looking at sizes it will fit in nicely without too much trouble. The 22.6lt is 100mm deeper cry

What say you good people?

15L combined with a water saving shower head will be fine.  Especially for one person.

I would suggest the next size up the SW6DEA it's 22Lts.
We have one and I find it gives me time for a decent shower, I don't think I would like much less hot water...
If it's not much dearer, I reckon it would be worth it.

Cheers,

Hi Doug ,i did consider the 15l Suburban but i figured for the little extra $s i went for the 22l one,one other thing to remember, in cold weather you don't use much cold water to mix,wont take long to use up 15l,
for me i am very happy with my Suburban hws,don't know about the 240v side though,i only ever use the gas....cheers Ray

Just ordered and paid deposit on the SW6DEA, El Gringo. With the twins and "What if", in mind, Hey Jim biggrin

 

I nearly went with gas only but gas/electric was only $100 difference. 

 

Thanks everyone.

Enjoy... We get to have grandkids stay from time to time as well (got double bunks for them) and it does help to have decent hot water.

 

Cheers,

You have definately made the right decision Dougwe. Always better to have more compared to not enough. We have gas/electric and only use electric whenever we have access to electricity. Works fine.
