Why a Continuous Flow Unit Suits Some Homes
A continuous flow system fits a particular kind of household, and several of them live on this island.
It never runs dry
Water heats as it passes through the heat exchanger, so the last shower is as hot as the first no matter when everyone gets up.
There is no cylinder rusting away
No tank means no sacrificial anode to wear through and no shell waiting to let go one day.
The flow rate sets the limit
One unit can run two showers comfortably but maybe not three at once, so we match the model to your outlets rather than guess.
It suits tight spots
A wall-hung unit frees the ground a tank would occupy, which helps in courtyards and villa units.
How an Instant Unit Goes In
- 1
Check the supply side
On a gas model we test the line size and pressure feeding the burner, because an undersized gas run starves the unit. For the electric version, the dedicated circuit question goes to your electrician before anything is ordered.
- 2
Choose the position
We pick a wall bracket with a clear flue run, out of the worst salt spray, and still reachable for future servicing.
- 3
Fit the unit and its valves
The unit goes up, the water connections run through new isolation valves, and the tempering valve gets set so bathroom water stays at 50°C or below.
- 4
Run the taps and sign off
We test every outlet with you, confirm the temperature holds steady, and explain the controls before we leave.

Instant Hot Water Price Drivers
Gas or electric connection
A gas model needs a supply line big enough for the burner, while the electric version's circuit is a separate cost through your electrician.
Where the unit hangs
A sheltered wall with a short flue run keeps the install simple; a tricky position takes longer.
What it replaces
Swapping out a dead tank means removing it and capping or rerunning pipes, which adds work to the day.
Valves on the Unitywater supply
Isolation and tempering valves get renewed where corrosion has already worked into them.
Your hot water job is priced up front as a fixed quote, and no work begins until you've agreed to it. We work on flat-rate pricing with no hidden fees, and there's no extra charge for nights, weekends or public holidays. You can also fix now, pay later.
If you are moving on from a finished tank, that job sits on our hot water replacement page, and a brand-new setup for a reno or build is covered under hot water installation.
Instant Units on Bribie's Original Town
Holiday weeks test a small unit
When the caravan park and the foreshore fill up, a house built for two suddenly runs six showers in a row. That is when a continuous flow system earns its keep, provided the flow rate was matched to the outlets in the first place.
Retiree households want right-sized hot water
The age profile here skews to retirees, so a big family tank can be more than a household needs. A compact wall unit heats less water for the same comfort, and Bongaree Hot Water Services checks the gas line size before quoting any instant unit on the island.
Small dwellings suit wall units
At the last census, flats and apartments made up 5.8 per cent of dwellings, and a villa or unit courtyard often has wall space where a floor tank would crowd everything else out.
When an Instant Unit Isn't the Answer
When we're not the right call: the electric version of this system needs a heavy dedicated circuit, and that wiring sits with your electrician, so sort that quote first and we will handle the plumbing around it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Call (07) 3523 1736Will a continuous flow unit keep up when holiday weeks fill Bongaree?
Yes, because a continuous flow system heats on demand and never empties, which is why we size the flow rate to the number of bathrooms before we quote any job here.
Do instant gas units in Bongaree run on bottled LPG?
Often, because bottled LPG is a common way to run gas units where no street main is connected, and we set the bottles and regulator as part of the install.
How does salt spray off the Passage treat a wall-hung unit?
Hard, because the same salt air that rusts tank fittings also attacks a wall unit's casing and connections, so we check those points whenever we service a home near the water.
Can an instant electric unit run off an Energex supply?
Only with a big dedicated circuit behind it, and that wiring is your electrician's to arrange, so we suggest sorting that quote before we book the plumbing side of the job.
Is a tankless unit a good match for a small household?
Often, because the census median age here sits at 67 and households are small, so a compact wall unit matched to a couple avoids heating the water a family-sized tank would hold.
