MP indoor SS single thermosiphon wetback coil Ø560mm

Overview

A thermosiphon coils allows you to have a mains pressure cylinder connected to a wetback fire

Wetback is something that you mostly associate with an old house with a low pressure copper cylinder connected to an old wood burner. With a Rinnai thermosiphon cylinder you can now have a new modern house with mains pressure water heated by your wetback fire, saving you money on your power bill.

Thermosiphon coil for wetback
Water is circulated through a coil inside the cylinder by a thermosiphon effect, i.e. warmer water rises and cooler water falls, creating a natural flow. This means there is no need for a pump to circulate water, you can still heat your water even if there's a power cut.

Eco inlet
Added benefit of an eco inlet that allows connection to an open loop* (potable) solar system, or a hot water heat pump.

* For open loop solar systems the potable water (suitable for drinking and food preparation) from the cylinder flows through the collector—water that flows through the system is used directly by the household.
