2. DESCRIPTION

The WHPS BA SS is an upright free-standing water heater with a single heat exchanger (coil) and can be connected to an

independent, central or district heating system or it can be used in forced-circulation solar heating systems.

The WHPS BA DS is an upright free-standing water heater with a double heat exchanger (coil) that can be connected to a

thermal solar collector, which uses solar panels to generate domestic hot water, or used when it is important to split up the

heat exchange surface due to considerable uctuation in demand.

In both models the surface of the heating element is large enough to produce large quantities of hot water. The lower part

of the heat exchanger is angled downwards to allow the entire volume of water in the storage tank to be heated.

Perfect insulation is provided by extra-thick high-density polyurethane foam.
