Where a Flow Unit Makes Sense
A continuous flow setup suits households that want hot water on demand and floor space back. The upsides come down to three things:
No runouts
The unit heats while water flows, so the last shower of the night is as hot as the first, no matter who bathed before you.
A small footprint
Most gas units hang on a wall, which matters on the tight seaside lots and in the apartment laundries common around here.
Gas or electric
A gas unit wants an adequately sized gas line; the electric version wants heavy wiring, which we come back to below.
If you are weighing flow against a storage tank, our gas hot water page compares the two gas options side by side.
Fitting a Continuous Flow Unit
Every install follows the same sequence, whether the unit replaces an old cylinder or goes somewhere new:
- 1
Size the services
We measure the gas line or the electrical capacity first, because a starved supply chokes a flow unit's output no matter how good the unit is.
- 2
Match the flow rate
The unit has to cover the outlets you actually run at once, so we ask who lives here and which taps matter before recommending a model class.
- 3
Mount and connect
The unit goes up, the water and gas or power connections are made, and new isolation and pressure valves go in where the old ones have had their day.
- 4
Set the temperature
We run every tap, confirm the tempering valve holds shower water at 50°C, and walk you through the controls before we pack up.

What Moves the Price on a Flow Unit
No two flow unit jobs price the same. The main movers are:
- Whether the gas line needs upsizing to feed the new unit properly
- The electrical side, where an electric unit's heavy feed changes the scope
- Where the unit mounts, since a balcony or laundry cupboard changes the handling
- Any tired valves or supply runs we replace while we are in there
You get a fixed quote for the whole hot water job first, and we only start once you've approved it. Flat-rate pricing means no hidden fees and no extra fee for weekend or after-hours call-outs, and you can fix now, pay later.
Flow Units on the Peninsula
Retiree households run taps from dawn till late
The age profile here skews older, and a home that draws hot water across the whole day never waits for a tank to reheat. That steady demand is exactly what a flow unit was built for.
Flats hold nearly four in ten dwellings
Census figures put 37.6 per cent of local homes in flats or apartments, and a wall-hung gas unit reclaims the cupboard or balcony corner a cylinder would swallow.
Salt tests anything mounted outdoors
Around Settlement Cove Park and the foreshore strip, salty air works hard on exposed casings and brass fittings, so Redcliffe Hot Water Services chooses gear that copes with salt and checks the unit at every service call.
One Boundary Worth Knowing
We're not the right call when the job needs new wiring: an electric flow unit wants a heavy dedicated feed, and that circuit is your electrician's work, noted in our quote before we order anything. For a straight swap of a tired tank instead, see our hot water replacement page, or our hot water installation page if the unit is going somewhere no system has sat before.
Frequently Asked Questions
Call (07) 3522 5629Do continuous flow units suit the older flats around Redcliffe?
They do, because a compact wall-hung unit frees the laundry cupboard an old cylinder swallows, though we check the gas pipe size first so the unit can draw what it needs.
Does salty air near Moreton Bay shorten a wall-hung unit's life?
It can, so on exposed foreshore walls we pick casings and fittings built to shrug off salt and give them a close look at every service call.
What if my Redcliffe street has no mains gas connection?
Bottled LPG runs a gas flow unit happily, and we size the bottles and regulator as part of the job, so a lack of mains gas never rules the option out.
How many showers can run together on an instant unit?
That comes down to flow rate, which is why we ask about your household before quoting; a unit matched to two people handles a shower and a dishwasher without a struggle.
Does an electric flow unit need extra wiring approval?
It needs a heavy dedicated feed that ordinary household wiring cannot carry, so the circuit is an electrician's call, and our quote flags that clearly before anything is ordered.
