At a COP of 4.41, the 270L produces 4.41kWh of heat for every 1kWh of electricity — a dramatic reduction in running costs.
Operates down to -7°C (or -15°C with the electric element) — no performance drop on cold Melbourne days.
Solar Soaker mode draws on excess solar export, running your hot water almost for free when the sun is shining.
