    Thermann Evacuated Tube Solar electric boosted hot water systems offer the best of both worlds. While the tubes harness the suns energy to heat your water, you also have the confidence of an affordable electric tank to provide back up if needed. You'll not only have peace of mind, you'll also reduce your running costs.

    • Cyclone rated framework
    • Cost effective to run

    How it works

    Step 1
    The sunlight strikes the dark absorber coating inside the evacuated tube.

    Step 2
    The heat pipe transfers the heat up to the copper header pipe location in the insulated manifold box.

    Step 3
    A circulator moves water from the storage tank to the copper pipe warming the water. The solar heated water is then pushed down into the storage tank for use. Anti-frost is built in to the Thermann system to ensure solar hot water can be provided even in cold regions.

    Save with Solar

    When it comes to lowering your power bills, Thermann is the right investment choice for the longer term. When paired with the solar tube components, it provides lower running costs, making it the smarter, more sustainable and affordable alternative to the traditional systems. It's also better for the environment. In times of high sun exposure, the system will use 100% of its energy from the sun, using almost 0 mains electricity.
