Cylinder range covers many applications
The Nero hot water cylinders from Warmflow are designed to provide efficient and reliable hot water supply for a variety of applications.
Available in a number of sizes, from 110 to 290 litres, these cylinders are available in indirect, twin coil, triple coil, direct and heat pump models. They also benefit from a duplex steel construction and grey leather grain casing, with high performance rigid coils. The tanks are equipped with a range of safety features, including a pressure relief valve and an immersion heater cut-out switch.
The heat pump cylinder model is designed to work in tandem with Warmflow’s Zeno range of air source heat pumps. They come in four sizes from 170 to 290 litres to suit a majority of heat pump systems. Thanks to their large surface area and high performance plate heat exchanger, the heat pump models boast impressive heat-up times, with the 170 litre model taking just 25 minutes to reach 60°C from cold. Like the rest of the range, these cylinders are designed to be fed directly from the mains water supply via the inlet group supplied, which is capable of receiving incoming water at pressures up to a maximum of 16 bar.
