Solar

Unvented Solar Cylinders are designed to efficiently store and supply hot water by harnessing energy from solar thermal systems. These cylinders work seamlessly with solar panels and auxiliary heat sources such as boilers or immersion heaters, providing a reliable and eco-friendly solution for domestic and commercial hot water needs.

About Unvented Solar Cylinders

Unvented Solar Cylinders operate at mains pressure, ensuring powerful water flow and consistent performance throughout the property. They feature dual coils — one connected to solar collectors and the other to a secondary heat source — allowing for efficient use of renewable energy while maintaining a backup heating option when solar energy is limited.
