Mercedes 300

The Mercedes of Heat Pumps!
These excellent quality German made heat pumps draw only 520w of electricity, yet efficiently produce enough hot water for a family of 5.

Because they extract solar energy from the ambient air, they do not require solar collectors on your roof.

The 300-MS is ideal for up to 5 people in a 2-3 bedroom 1-2 bathroom home.

The 300-MS has a recovery rate of 35Lt/hr to 60Lt//hr depending on the ambient air temperature, so some management of peak-load times may be important in larger households. Because it extracts heat from the air more slowly than other heat pumps, it can be installed in a confined but ventilated space such as a garage.

The water storage tank is made from enamel-lined mild steel, and has a design life of approx 15yrs.

The tank has a 5yr warranty, and the heat pump has 2yrs warranty.

Fully imported German Quality and reliability.

Note: Will generate a little more noise than an aircon, so we recommend installing it away from bedrooms or put it on a timer so it doesn't operate at night. (small price to pay for a very efficient and inexpensive unit)
