Apricus Gas Boosted Solar Hot Water Systems
Gas boosted solar systems are great for those wanting a virtually unlimited supply of hot water. The water in the storage tank is pre-heated by solar, if the storage tank reaches over 57 degrees, the gas booster will not fire up and use gas.
If the water is below 57 degrees, it will go through the gas instantaneous hot water booster to bring the temperature up to the required temperature.
The great thing about gas boosting is that as long as you have gas, you will have hot water!... The running costs on bottled gas may be higher than electric boosting - however the back-up is instantaneous where-as electric boosting may take 1-2 hours to heat when activated.
