Kwikot Superline 400 Dual
Electric Water Heater System product features
The Kwikot Superline 400 Dual is a high pressure electric water heater available in a 100 litre, 150 litre and 200 litre and are SABS 400kPa approved.
The inner cylinder is manufactured from 1.6mm steel and thermofused porcelain enamelled for cylinder longevity and hygiene.
Renewable energy ready connection
The polyurethane insulation between the inner cylinder and the outer galvanised casement is 128% thicker, resulting in the hourly standing heat loss decreasing from 108 watts per hour to 50 watts per hour, a 50% decrease on the 150 It.
A lower energy loss, a more efficient electric water heater. Energy efficiency improved from a D rating to a B rating.
Renewable energy ready for a Solar Retrofit System or a Heat Pump.
Complies to SABS 151 Specifications
