Vulcan 135L LPG Gas Storage Hot Water System

Choose the unit only if you already have a licensed gas fitter arranged, or check your supply and install package before checkout to confirm LPG suitability, gas supply requirements, valve kit requirements, access, water pressure, outdoor location and available installation timeframes.

The Vulcan 135L LPG gas storage water heater is a 4 Star gas storage system designed for small to medium households that want stored hot water with quick gas recovery. With 135L storage capacity, outdoor-only installation and an LPG / propane model available, it is a practical replacement option for homes using bottled LPG or existing LPG gas infrastructure.

About the Vulcan 135L LPG Gas Water Heater

The Vulcan 135L LPG Gas Water Heater stores hot water in a vitreous enamel lined cylinder and uses LPG gas to reheat the stored water.

Unlike continuous flow gas hot water, a gas storage system keeps a volume of hot water ready for use. This can suit homes that prefer a traditional storage-style hot water system and are replacing an older external LPG gas storage unit.

This page is for the LPG / propane model, not the natural gas model. LPG and natural gas units are not interchangeable, so the correct gas type must be selected before purchase and installation.

LPG Gas Storage Hot Water

The Vulcan 135L LPG is designed for homes using LPG / propane gas. It can suit properties without mains natural gas, homes using bottled LPG and locations where an existing LPG gas storage water heater is being replaced.

Because this is the LPG model, it must be matched to a suitable LPG gas supply. LPG and natural gas appliances are not interchangeable. The gas type should be checked before ordering and confirmed by a licensed gas fitter before installation.

135L Storage Capacity

The Vulcan 135L LPG stores 135L of hot water. This gives the household a stored volume of hot water ready for use, with gas recovery to reheat the cylinder after hot water is drawn.

Vulcan lists the 135L gas storage model as suitable for small to medium households, with a maximum of 5 people based on stated shower and climate assumptions. Real suitability depends on shower duration, water temperature, climate, outlet flow rates, bath use, laundry demand and household routines.

4 Star Gas Energy Rating

The Vulcan 135L LPG has a 4 Star gas energy rating.

Gas storage water heaters are commonly selected where a home already has a gas storage system installed and the customer wants a practical replacement. Running costs depend on hot water usage, LPG pricing, thermostat settings, recovery demand, location and installation condition.

Vitreous Enamel Lined Cylinder

The Vulcan 135L LPG uses a vitreous enamel lined cylinder. This lining helps protect the inside of the tank and supports long-term gas storage hot water performance when the system is installed and maintained correctly.

Water quality, pressure control, correct valve selection and compliant installation all play an important role in the service life of any storage water heater.

Outdoor Installation Only

The Vulcan 135L LPG gas storage water heater is suitable for outdoor installation only.

It should not be installed indoors. Outdoor gas storage systems must be installed with suitable clearances, ventilation, flue terminal positioning, base support, access, water connections, gas connection and compliance requirements.

LPG Gas Supply Requirements

The Vulcan 135L LPG has a listed LPG / propane hourly gas consumption of 26 MJ, minimum gas pressure of 2.75 kPa, test point gas pressure of 2.70 kPa and maximum gas pressure of 3.50 kPa.

A licensed gas fitter should confirm LPG bottle setup, regulator suitability, gas pipe sizing, appliance location and compliance requirements before installation.

Water Pressure Requirements

The Vulcan 135L LPG has a relief valve setting of 1400 kPa, ECV setting of 1200 kPa, maximum supply pressure of 960 kPa with an expansion control valve and maximum supply pressure of 1120 kPa without an expansion control valve.

If incoming water pressure is too high, pressure control may be required. Valve requirements should be checked before installation, especially when replacing older units where existing valves may be worn, missing or non-compliant.

Left Handed Water Connections

The Vulcan 135L gas storage model uses Rp 3/4 left hand water connections.

Connection position matters for replacement work because the existing pipework can affect installation time, parts required and whether pipework changes are needed. The supplied model and existing pipework should be checked before installation.

Trim Kit Option

Vulcan lists a trim kit for the 135L gas storage model.

A trim kit may be useful in some installations depending on the existing setup and finish required. Trim kits are not included unless selected separately.

Vulcan 135L LPG vs Natural Gas Model

The Vulcan 135L gas storage range includes natural gas and LPG / propane model options.

The LPG model is for properties using LPG. The natural gas model is for properties connected to mains natural gas. These models are not interchangeable, so the correct gas type must be selected before ordering.

Vulcan 135L LPG vs Continuous Flow LPG

The Vulcan 135L LPG stores hot water in a tank, while an LPG continuous flow system heats water as it passes through the unit.

A gas storage system may suit customers replacing an existing gas storage unit and wanting a familiar storage-style setup. A continuous flow system may suit customers wanting a compact wall-mounted unit with on-demand heating, but it must be correctly sized for flow rate, fixture use and gas supply.

The best option depends on the existing system, household usage, LPG setup, available space, hot water demand and installation requirements.

Vulcan 135L LPG vs Electric Storage

A Vulcan 135L LPG gas storage system uses LPG gas for heating, while an electric storage system uses an electric element.

LPG gas storage may suit properties already set up for LPG and replacing an existing gas storage unit. Electric storage may suit homes without gas supply or where electrical replacement is simpler. Site conditions, running costs, energy source, compliance requirements and installation costs should all be considered.

Common Uses

• LPG gas storage hot water replacement

• External gas storage water heater replacement

• Small to medium households

• Homes using bottled LPG

• Rental properties

• Investment properties

• Renovation projects

• Properties replacing an existing Vulcan 135L LPG system

• Homes wanting stored hot water with gas recovery

• Outdoor installations with suitable base and clearances

• Supply-only orders where a licensed installer is already arranged

• Supply and install orders in selected Brisbane and Gold Coast areas

Suitability depends on household size, hot water usage, LPG supply, gas pipe sizing, installation location, plumbing condition, water pressure, access, base condition and compliance requirements.
