Solar (close coupled)/Gas Boosted (Continuous Flow) |
| Taking advantage of the thermosyphon
systems natural heating into the cylinder gives
a preheat storage capacity from the solar panels.
This water is drawn down via an insulated line to a gas-fired
non-storage continuous flow heater, which minimises the gas
energy required to heat the water.
The end result is a renewable hot water system preheating
to a non-renewable system. |

Solar (closed coupled)/Gas boosted (storage)
|
| This system is an alternative
to the continuous flow gas booster, with the added advantage
of higher flow rates to multiple outlets.
The gas storage heater is now available with a 5 star rating
and is more suitable for larger families with higher hot water
requirements.
Power is generally not required for the gas unit. |

Solar (split)/gas
boosted (continuous flow)
|
| Split solar systems are more easily adapted
to architecturally designed buildings due to the low profile
roof panels with the tank being remote.
This preheat solar water can be boosted by a non-storage
continuous gas hot water unit, combining solar storage with
high gas efficiency.

Solar (close coupled)/Gas
boosted (storage)
|
| Using the feature advantages of the remote
solar panels with on-ground storage, coupled with a 5 star
rated gas storage system - gives both versatility and large
capacity recovery.
May also suit solar conversion on an existing modern gas
heater, with the advantage of maintaining low profile roofing
lines.
