Tank-on-Tank Cylinder ETA biomass boilers
Bublshop Bublshop has launched its Tank-on-Tank Cylinder , a heat pump cylinder designed to allow for a quicker and easier installation . Bublshop , a leading distributor of high-quality renewable energy products with branches in Dorset and Scotland , has been working with RM Cylinders to design and create an exclusive cylinder that allows for a more efficient installation of any heat pump system .
The Tank-on-Tank Cylinder is available with either a 180-litre or 210-litre capacity and has a 50-litre buffer tank built in . The cylinder has been created to alleviate the common heat pump installation issue ; the key design features include maintaining the system flow and ensure maximum efficiencies are met .
Bublshop originated from an MCS installer background in response to the belief that the industry was lacking a single destination from which customers could buy the whole renewable package .
HIT N295 PV module
Panasonic Panasonic has announced the launch of its new HIT N295 solar module for Europe . The latest addition to the company ’ s high-efficiency product portfolio is the most powerful sub-1.6m ² solar panel available on the continent and provides installers with one of the most comprehensive , flexible solar offerings on the market to deliver more power on any roof .
The N295 combines a compact module size and frame thickness with Panasonic ’ s high-performance technology , offering 19.1 % panel efficiency . At less than 150cm in length , the N295 empowers European residential solar installers to maximise customers ’ available roof space by installing an additional module row .
Innasol As the sole UK distributor of ETA biomass boilers , Innasol has made new additions to the already extensive product portfolio .
Innasol partners and Plumb Centre customers have access to the brand new ETA PE-K pellet boiler , available in 110kW , 140kW , 180kW , 199kW and 220kW . The reason for these additions is to establish a wood pellet boiler on the market with a power range above 90kW . This enables high temperature output with a standard ETA pellet auger system and therefore offers a considerable price advantage as only one fuel store is needed – a key selling point for this particular boiler range .
Integrated renewable energy solution
The Zero Carbon Solution & Vaillant Renewable energy system developers the Zero Carbon Solution and Vaillant , the world ’ s leading heating technology manufacturer , have formed a new partnership to create an industry-leading renewable heating system for low and zero carbon property developments .
Vaillant ’ s ground source heat pumps are the first to feature an inter-seasonal heat store known as the Earth Energy Bank , patented by the Zero Carbon Solution . The innovative technology captures thermal solar energy for use all year round , giving an environmental impact rating for CO2 emissions > 95 . Unlike traditional ground source systems , the heat pumps do not require long trenches or deep boreholes , making them cheaper and easier to install – especially in dense housinhe technology was showcased at the Energy 2016 exhibition , part of UK Construction Week , where graphics , models and animations demonstrated how it works and where it is located within the home .
