Solving a space problem, not just a hot water one
Heating water only as it's drawn, rather than storing a tankful in advance, is exactly why continuous-flow so often solves a placement issue a tank simply can't. Call (02) 9072 0513 and get one properly sized for your property.
Laundries built for a copper, not a tank
Terraces along Knox Street and Burnie Street had their laundries and rear alcoves laid out well over a century ago, back when a copper, not a full-size hot water tank, was what those small spaces were actually built to hold.
- A wall-hung continuous-flow unit clears that same tight footprint without eating into usable space Where a bulky tank simply wouldn't go, a compact unit closes the gap.
- Every square metre in an original terrace already earns its keep Freeing up a laundry corner from a tank matters here more than the running-cost debate ever does.
Instant hot water, in gas and electric
Continuous-flow covers a genuine spread of options, from small electric units to higher-output gas systems, and the deciding factor is usually whatever's already running to the property and how heavily the household leans on it day to day:
Gas continuous-flow
A gas unit recovers almost instantly under sustained demand, which suits a busier household or a two-bathroom layout where showers tend to stack up back to back on a rushed morning.
Electric continuous-flow
An electric unit suits a terrace or semi with no existing gas supply, sidestepping the cost of a new line purely to feed one small appliance, particularly where the side passage barely allows a trench.
Sizing across a shared semi
Working out true capacity in a semi means counting outlets across both dwellings honestly, not just one, because a unit sized only for the near side can leave the other half running short.
Compact retrofits into old laundries
Pulling a failing tank out of a laundry usually leaves considerably more room than the replacement needs, and the slim housing tucks into a spot the original-era unit never left much space around.
Weather matters as much as space does here
A unit mounted with a clear line to Clovelly Beach copes with a level of salt spray no standard casing was built for. Left unprotected, exterior fittings and mounting brackets give out well before the heating components inside ever would.
Set a unit into a side passage or somewhere sheltered near Fred Hollows Reserve and it fares considerably better across the years, a bit of shelter at installation buys the housing real extra life.
Getting sizing wrong shows up fast
Heat that fades as the shower goes on
A shower running properly warm to begin with, then slipping cooler the longer it continues, usually means the unit simply can't keep several outlets satisfied together, and swapping it for a correctly rated model settles that.
One bathroom fine, a second one struggling
A unit that performs well enough alone but noticeably drops off once a second bathroom joins in points to genuine semi-wide demand outstripping the current rating, a capacity upgrade rather than a full system change.
Comparing this against a storage tank generally? A full side-by-side sits back on the hot water hub.
Getting capacity right avoids the usual complaint
Sizing an instant system correctly from the start heads off the one gripe that comes up again and again on a shared-wall property:
- A unit sized too small gets blamed for being broken when it isn't Water losing heat once demand climbs is nearly always a sizing shortfall, not a faulty system, and correcting it costs a fraction of an early full swap.
- A capacity matched to the room beats a unit forced to fit Squeezing in an undersized model purely to save cupboard depth just repeats the same complaint later.
- A properly rated casing outlasts a standard one on an exposed block Getting that specification right at the outset means the housing isn't replaced years ahead of the unit it protects.
How it works
Choosing and fitting an instant system, step by step
- 01
Call and tell us
Ring (02) 9072 0513 and describe what's happening, and a licensed plumber, not an answering machine, will tell you what it likely means, what to stop using, and when we can realistically be there.

Quote before work
Your plumber inspects the job properly, runs whatever diagnosis it genuinely needs, and hands you a single fixed written price covering the complete fix, with a $0 call out fee and nothing added afterwards.
- 03
Fit and calibrate
Your plumber secures the selected model into the available space, wires or pipes it to whichever supply it needs, and runs it through a proper flow test before the household relies on it.

Everything we complete is covered by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, the promise that outlasts the job itself: if it's not right, we come back. No questions. No cost.
Why choose Your Plumber Clovelly
Fixed prices, kept
Every job is priced upfront in plain writing before any work starts, the invoice always matches that number, and weekend or late-evening timing changes nothing, because overtime rates simply don't exist here.
Licensed and insured
Your Plumber Clovelly works under licence #275278C with full insurance behind every job, and the compliance certificates that protect your home's paperwork trail arrive with the invoice, without you ever needing to ask for them.
Lifetime Labour Warranty
Workmanship here is guaranteed for life under our Lifetime Labour Warranty rather than for a warranty card's fine-print window, which says more about how the work is done in the first place than any advertisement could.
Genuinely local response
We work these streets constantly rather than commuting in from across Sydney, so the van reaching you has usually just left a job nearby, stocked for the faults the local houses actually develop.
Fitting a slim unit into a laundry built long before continuous-flow existed is simply routine here.
Where we work
Areas we service
This crew fits continuous-flow systems throughout Coogee, Bronte, Randwick, Waverley and Charing Cross too, whether the job's a compact terrace laundry unit or a higher-output system for a busier semi.
Good questions, straight answers
Instant hot water questions Clovelly locals ask
Terrace on Knox Street has a laundry the size of a cupboard, does an instant unit actually fit?
In most cases, a slim wall-hung unit clears a tiny original laundry with room to spare, since it doesn't need anywhere near the floor space a tank sitting upright would take up.
Is instant hot water a sensible swap for an old storage tank on Burnie Street?
Often it is, especially once the tank's already on its way out, because the alcove it leaves behind almost always has more than enough room for the slimmer replacement unit.
Between gas and electric, which instant option suits a semi that's never had gas connected?
Electric tends to make more sense, since running a brand-new gas line into an original semi purely for one small unit rarely stacks up against simply fitting a correctly sized electric model.
Does an outdoor unit near Fred Hollows Reserve need anything special fitted because of the salt air?
It does, the housing needs to be genuinely weatherproof and corrosion-resistant, because an ordinary casing that close to the coast wears out long before the heating parts inside it would.
Can flow rate genuinely keep up in a semi with two bathrooms running at once?
It can, as long as the unit's matched to real peak demand across both bathrooms rather than sized off a single shower, and that gets worked out before anything's recommended.
Does the warranty on an instant system match what a storage tank install would get?
Yes, whatever the manufacturer promises on the hardware stands separately, and this crew backs its own fitting work with the Lifetime Labour Warranty no matter whether the finished job runs on gas or power.
