Many New Zealanders are turning to solar heating for their hot water system. This can be a very sensible financial decision, and is certainly beneficial for our environment. Solar powered hot water cylinders collect heat from the sun by using a solar panel that is fitted on the roof. This stored energy is then used to heat the water in the hot water cylinder.
Peter Cocks manufactures a range of solar capable cylinders and are a popular choice for many solar companies in New Zealand.
All of the cylinders below are Mains Pressure Duplex Stainless Steel and come with 3 probe pockets;
