Chelmer integrated package hot water cylinders
Dual Thermostore range of high performance hot water cylinders from Chelmer Heating Services are exceptionally energy efficient.
A full commitment to renewable energy is also indicated with an additional coil fitted as standard for supplementary thermal input from solar collectors for both heating and hot water.
The compact, elegant, fully integrated design is compatible with a range of boilers including gas, oil, LPG and electric.
The fully insulated cased unit incorporates a 'tank in tank' domestic cylinder for optimal heat transfer, while a revolutionary heating buffer (optimised for heat pump connection) allows fully zoned underfloor heating with simplified controls, and a marked increase in efficiency.
A back-up immersion heater is provided for the domestic hot water supply, with the cylinder design also minimising wasteful boiler and heat pump cycling.
Three cylinders are currently available in the range offering stored domestic water capacities of 100/150/200 litres, with corresponding heating buffers for underfloor heating areas of 180/260/360 metres2.
All cylinders have installation footprints of 800 x 800mm, with heights of 1.6, 1.8 or 2.2 metres respectively.
