HOW IT WORKS

  • 1. Air is Drawn In
    The system extracts heat from surrounding air using a side fan design for maximum airflow.
  • 2. Heat Absorbed
    The microchannel technology increases contact area for more efficient heat transfer.
  • 3. Water Heated
    Heat is transferred into the 280L enamel-lined tank, providing a steady supply of hot water.
  • 4. Hot Water Stored
    Water is kept ready for use day and night, with a 2.4 kW backup element available when needed.
