Some key differences and benefits of Polar Energi over and above other systems...
The unique design in the transfer of energy in the refrigerant gas to the DHW and waterborne floor heating system is what makes Polar Energi more effective in operation and a world-leading product.
• No circulation pumps for domestic hot water.
• No 3-way valves for domestic hot water.
• No electric input for the domestic hot water.
• No additional energy losses through a secondary heat exchanger for domestic hot water.
• Low storage volume – quick recovery it equals more efficiencies with 400L plus of hot water in the first hour. (This is equivalent to a 300L system).
• No buffer tanks required for fluctuating flow rates on the central heating system.
Its efficiencies come from a unique, future thinking design of the Polar Energi cylinder.
