Benefits of Gledhill 180 Litre Stainless Lite Plus Solar Direct Unvented Cylinder

• Energy Efficiency: Solar direct unvented cylinders are designed to work in conjunction with solar thermal panels. They can efficiently capture and store solar energy, which can significantly reduce your reliance on traditional energy sources like electricity or gas for heating water. This can lead to lower energy bills and reduced carbon emissions.
• Ample Hot Water Supply: A 180-liter capacity is substantial and should provide an ample supply of hot water for household needs, making it suitable for larger households or properties with higher hot water demands.
• Consistent Hot Water: Unvented cylinders provide consistent water pressure and temperature throughout your home, ensuring a reliable supply of hot water for showers, baths, and other domestic uses.
• Space-Saving Design: Unvented cylinders typically have a compact design, which can save valuable space in your home compared to traditional vented systems that require a cold water storage tank.
• Reduced Heat Loss: Many unvented cylinders come with effective insulation to minimize heat loss. This insulation can help keep water hot for longer periods, reducing the need for frequent reheating.
• Low Maintenance: Solar direct unvented cylinders are generally low-maintenance. Regular servicing may be required, but they often have fewer components than traditional systems, which can mean fewer potential points of failure.
• Environmental Benefits: By harnessing solar energy, these cylinders contribute to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and promote a more environmentally friendly and sustainable energy source.
• Longevity: Quality stainless steel construction can contribute to the longevity of the cylinder, reducing the need for replacement or repairs over time.
• Government Incentives: Depending on your location, you may be eligible for government incentives, rebates, or tax credits for installing solar thermal systems, which can offset the initial cost.
• Independence from Utility Companies: Solar direct unvented cylinders allow you to be less dependent on utility companies for your hot water needs, providing a degree of energy independence.
