What’s Involved in a Burwood Hot Water Installation
A Burwood hot water installation starts with picking the right system for your home and budget — gas storage, electric, heat pump, or continuous flow. Newton sizes the unit to your household, checks gas capacity and clearances, and handles the swap-over cleanly, whether you’re replacing an old tank or moving to a more efficient continuous flow unit. We install all major brands including Rheem, Rinnai, Bosch and Dux, remove the old unit, and leave the site tidy. Every gasfitting job carries a Certificate of Compliance lodged with the VBA.

It depends on the type of system and your existing setup. A like-for-like gas or electric storage swap is the most affordable, while heat pump and continuous flow installs cost more upfront but save on running costs. Newton gives you a clear fixed-price quote before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
-
It comes down to your household size, energy connection, and budget. Continuous flow gas suits homes that never want to run out of hot water, heat pumps are great for cutting running costs, and storage units remain a reliable, lower-cost option. Newton talks you through the trade-offs and recommends the right fit for your place.
-
Yes, that’s a very common upgrade. Moving from a storage tank to continuous flow frees up space and gives you endless hot water, though it may need gas line and flue changes. Newton checks your gas supply and the install location first, then quotes the full changeover including any pipework.
-
Always. Every gas hot water installation is signed off with a Certificate of Compliance lodged with the VBA, which confirms the work meets Australian standards. You’ll get your copy for your records and any future warranty or insurance needs.
-
Most straightforward swap-overs are done in 2 to 4 hours, so you’re back to hot water the same day. Changeovers that involve relocating the unit, new gas lines, or switching system types take a little longer, and Newton will give you a realistic timeframe when he quotes.
