Why A Flow Unit Suits These Homes
A continuous flow unit does one job well: it heats water on demand instead of holding a tankful. That brings some practical wins:
No running dry
The unit heats water while it passes through, so back-to-back showers finish the job, not the hot water.
No tank to rust out
With nothing stored, the sediment and corrosion that finish a cylinder off have nowhere to start.
Space saved
A wall-hung model takes a fraction of the room a cylinder needs, which matters in apartments and tight cottages.
Gas or electric
Gas models need an adequate gas line and correct pipe sizing; electric models need a large dedicated supply, which we check early.
No standing losses
Water is heated only when a tap opens, so nothing sits cooling overnight.
The trade-off is capacity. The unit's flow rate decides which outlets run at the same time, so we size it to your household rather than to the biggest number on the box.
Fitting A Continuous Flow Unit
Every install runs the same four steps:
- 1

Measure the supply first
The gas line, meter and pipe runs get checked, or the switchboard on an electric model, because a starved unit never delivers what the label promises.
- 2

Match the capacity
We pair the flow rate to your bathrooms and kitchen so two outlets run side by side without one going cold.
- 3

Mount and connect
The unit goes on its bracket, then the water connections, the gas line or power feed, and the flue where the model needs one.
- 4

Commission and hand over
Each hot outlet gets opened, the tempering valve is set so the bath runs safe at 50°C, and the controls get explained before we pack up.

What Shapes A Flow Unit Quote
Four things move the price on a tankless job:
The gas line
An old run sized for a storage tank sometimes needs upgrading before a flow unit will perform properly.
The power supply
An electric model's dedicated circuit is a separate trade's work, and we flag that early if yours needs it.
The mounting spot
A straight swap on an existing bracket is simple; a new flue run or a move to another wall adds pipework.
Valves and drainage
A tempering valve and a properly routed relief drain are part of a compliant job, not extras.
We price your hot water job up front as one fixed figure, and you decide whether we go ahead. There are no hidden fees with our flat-rate pricing, no surcharge for nights, weekends or public holidays, and the option to fix now, pay later.

Continuous Flow Units In Local Homes
Small households get the most from them
Census figures put the average household here at 2.2 people, so a unit sized for one or two showers covers most homes without heating water nobody uses.
Units are a big slice of the housing here
Roughly one dwelling in four is a flat or apartment, with the census putting the share at 23.7 per cent, and a wall-hung model reclaims the floor a cylinder would otherwise hog in a compact services cupboard.
Outdoor mounts work hard near the water
An instant unit hung on a balcony or side wall lives in the salt breeze off the bay, so Local Margate Hot Water checks the bracket, the connections and the casing condition before quoting, and fits the job so those parts stay easy to service.
Where a tired tank is making way for your first tankless unit, hot water replacement walks through that choice, and hot water installation deals with new builds and renovations.
When we're not the right call: an electric model of this type pulls a heavy load, so any new circuit or switchboard upgrade it needs is an electrician's job, and we say so before you spend on the wrong trade.
Frequently Asked Questions
Call (07) 3524 7164Can a continuous flow unit run two showers at once in Margate?
Usually yes, provided the model's flow rate and the supply behind it are sized for the outlets running together, which we measure at your place in person before quoting any install.
Does salt air off the bay affect wall-hung instant units here?
It can, because the breeze reaches most streets here, and we look over the casing, the connections and the mounting bracket closely on every outdoor unit before quoting the work.
Is a tankless unit practical in an older cottage?
Often it is, because hanging the unit on a wall reclaims the floor an old cylinder takes, though the gas supply and meter need measuring carefully before we commit to anything.
Will an instant electric unit run in a Margate apartment?
Possibly, but an instant electric model draws heavily on the household supply, so the switchboard and wiring need an electrician's assessment first, and we tell you that before money goes anywhere.
How long does a continuous flow install take?
A straight swap onto an existing wall bracket is usually one visit, while a new gas line, a flue run or an electrician's circuit adds time we spell out before starting.
