Making the most of Free energy from the sun!
SUNWARM is a significant breakthrough in innovative and environmentally friendly, solar energy technology. It is a British made system that has been specifically designed to operate in the British climate. SUNWARM is a complete system
that provides solar heated hot water, solar airheating, home ventilation and air-cooling. SUNWARM works 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, responding to the priority settings you choose on a simple, easy to use control panel.
Unique solar energy collectors Roof mounted, solar air collectors, incorporating a unique absorber material are the main generators of
pumped through a solar heating coil within your hot water cylinder. 2. HELPING TO HEAT THE
heat for the SUNWARM system. According to your
HOME by passing air through the solar air collectors and heating it prior to filtering and introduction
priorities these can be used in various ways:
into the home.
1. The solar air collectors will HEAT YOUR HOT WATER, using photo thermal solar energy (light to heat) provided free from the sun. This is achieved by passing the heatedair through an air to water heat transfer coil - included in the system.
The heated water is then
3. During hot summer nights the unique absorber material in the solar panels can cool to temperatures lower than the outside air. By passing ventilation air, drawn from outside, through the solar air panels it can be cooled before filtering, and then INTRODUCED AS COOLER, CLEANER AIR INTO THE HOME.
Sunwarm - state of the art solar heating system The low energy, low maintenance, air handling system, located in the loft, is of light weight yet robust construction. The function of this unit is to optimise Waterless, light weight solar panels connected to an intelligent, filtered-air, distribution unit.
energy gain and direct the air in accordance with your required priorities whilst always providing HOME VENTILATION normally via a single diffuser located centrally in your home. Warm air from the loft space can be filtered and delivered directly, or via the solar collectors, into the home. Cool air brought in from shaded part of the building, when required.
Warmed or cool, filtered air supplied to your home.
Free hot water from the solar heated collectors
Every SUNWARM unit is fitted with an easy to use control panel.
5 year guarantee * Your SUNWARM system carries a 5 year guarantee and is manufactured in Britain by the Nuaire Group, the UK’s market leaders in Whole Home Ventilation.
HOT WATER STORAGE A full range of hot water cylinders are available as part of your SUNWARM installation or it can be easily linked to any hot water cylinder that incorporates a solar heating coil.
See the benefits Not only will your family enjoy the many benefits that SUNWARM provides, but you can also SAVE AS MUCH AS 50% of the energy used to heat your home and water, even if your home is well insulated and energy efficient. Every SUNWARM unit is fitted with a monitoring unit which can be downloaded to a PC giving a complete profile of your system’s performance.
USER CONTROL PANEL An easy to use control panel is used for setting your system priorities. The panel also shows system status information and signals the need to change the air filters, which is approximately once every 5 years.
Sunwarm plus the ultimate solar thermal system! The addition of an intelligent heat exchange - heat recovery unit allows a significant amount of heat or coolth in extracted air from kitchens and bathrooms to be used to provide additional heating or cooling of the incoming supply air if desirable. Filtered extract grilles in WET rooms and circular supply air valves in all HABITABLE rooms are provided in lieu of the single diffuser with a standard SUNWARM. Old air is expelled to the exterior.
Warm air is used to heat your hot water and your home.
Up to 7 rooms supplied with air ventilation - via ducting. Depending on your setting warm or cold filtered air is provided.
Warm moist air is extracted from kitchens and bathrooms.

Good ventilation can mean a healthier home! The SUNWARM system not only provides all the energy saving features described, it also provides superb HOME VENTILATION bringing all of the additional benefits that this has for the health of your family. The radical improvement of indoor air quality that is achieved through this process produces many benefits:
DUST MITE population in the home can be substantially reduced, providing benefit to the 80% of asthmatics allergic to dust mite droppings. The filtered air process will hugely reduce the DUST AND POLLEN that normally exists in incoming air - excellent news for hayfever sufferers! CONDENSATION, increasingly found in homes and largely a consequence of modern lifestyles, is controlled. Stale odours and COOKING SMELLS are expelled from the home, thus providing a much more pleasant environment.
