(Please rotate mobile device to landscape for easy viewing)

Choosing the right gas storage hot water system package depends on your installation needs, household size, and whether additional electrical work is required. Use this guide to compare package levels and find the best fit for your home.

Selecting the right package helps streamline installation, but we understand that needs may change, and that the purchaser isn’t a plumber. We’re flexible and can make adjustments, such as upgrading to the next package as needed.

βœ… Silver – For minor upgrades

(EXAMPLE - Swapping a 20year old Dux 4-Star 135L with a new Vulcan 4-Star 170L, Strip all down and redo the valves, pipework, drain lines, support base and dispose of the old unit)

πŸ’° Sapphire (Best Value) – For installations requiring a new gas main or upgrade plus everything in the gold package
