Hot showers are a luxury you should be able to enjoy as often as you wish. Hot water bills can be a less relaxing experience. The key to economical hot water is energy-efficient water heating.

With this in mind, Rheem has introduced electric and gas water heaters that boast impressive energy saving statistics.

Peter Faase of Rheem says that the Rheem HP 3.25 heat pump water heater is one of the most efficient ways to heat water. It works by absorbing warmth from the surrounding air and transferring it to the water in the cylinder.

"Every kW of energy used by the heat pump transfers 3.25kW of energy into the water," says Peter Faase. "A standard electric water heater typically generates one unit of heat for each unit of energy used. This means you can make significant savings on your hot water account."

As an alternative, the Rheem Stellar is a highly efficient gas water heating option, which recycles and condenses the flue gases that are normally discharged at the top of the water heater. This improves efficiency by 10%.

"This is the first Australasian water heater to achieve up to 90% thermal efficiency," says Peter Faase. "It can provide up to 360 litres of hot water in the first hour and can reheat 200 litres every hour more than most families will ever need."

The Stellar mains pressure storage water heater can provide a flow rate of more than 40 litres per minute. This makes it well suited to homes with more than one bathroom, and households with moderate to high hot water usage.

Both the HP 3.25 and the Stellar cylinders are installed on the exterior of the house. As a result, you won't need a hot water cupboard inside. This means you have extra space available, which can be particularly valuable in a smaller home or a renovated bathroom.
