GAS & LPG units - with evacuated tube boosters!
We have a range of evacuated tube boosted GAS & LPG systems available. (click here - if you are building a new house)
- 270Lt glass-lined mild steel tank with instant gas unit &
20, 30 or 40 tube booster.
- 264Lt or 327Lt stainless steel tank with instant gas unit &
20, 30 or 40 tube booster.

Split solar system features:
- Split systems have the gas unit and storage tank on the ground and the solar booster collector tubes on the roof.
- No reinforcing of the roof structure is required for split systems.
- The tanks can be located internally or externally.
- We recommend Stainless steel tanks: Stainless Steel is ideal for solar storage tanks as water from the solar panels in summer can be above 90°C and stainless steel will not break down from the high heat, and will therefore provide a much longer lifespan and therefore better return on investment. (vitreous enamel tanks can crack and rust)
- The Gas heater provides continuous hot water, regardless of whether the tube boosters provide any solar gain.
- Systems can be set up with ring mains for domestic or commercial applications.
Key Benefits of these particular Solar Hot Water Systems
- Our evacuated glass tubes provide superior daily heat output due to the cylindrical absorber shape always being perpendicular to the Sun.(Positive Sun Tracking)
- These are the only toughened 2mm glass evacuated tubes available in Australia. (Strongest on the Australian market.)
- Insulation properties of the vacuum in these solar evacuated tubes allow up to 97% of the heat from the sun to be retained. (12 sputted layer, tri-chlor coating.)
- The copper heat pipe with a large surface area at the transfer point and increased water turbulence rapidly transfer heat to the circulating water from the storage tank passing through a well insulated manifold ensuring maximum solar heat gain.
- Tested to level 2 Australian standards frost protection. (minus 15°c)
- Fibreglass insulated collector manifold, sealed evacuated tubes, tri-chlor absorber coating and freeze protected heat pipes allow reliable solar gain even the coldest areas and on cloudy or overcast days.
- The collectors need no glycol or chemicals in frost prone areas. Systems that use glycol lose 10% performance and need regular changing of the glycol which can be costly.
- The evacuated glass tubes are naturally self cleaning when it rains due to their cylindrical shape and thus don’t lose performance from collector being coated in dirt and pollutants.
- Anodized Aluminium Alloy collector frame provides both strength and long term corrosion resistance.
- Super quiet, low energy solar circulation pump (<28 watts when on)
- Replacing individual tubes at approx $25 per tube (+ delivery & labour) is low cost maintenance as opposed to replacing a full solar flat panel.
