Using the non-toxic phase change material (PCM), sodium acetate, they can be charged with a variety of energy sources:
They can be retrofitted to existing hot water systems, or specified for use in new build projects. Sunamp Heat Batteries can substitute a standard hot water tank in a fraction of the space.
With a lifespan of up to 50 years, and very little maintenance required, they are proving popular with housing associations too: They completely negate the risk of Legislation and the cleaning requirements of typical hot water systems, on top of the space-saving for occupants.
The Uni Q batteries are available in 7 different models with 3kWh, 6kWh, 9kWh and 12kWh capacities. For domestic hot water we recommend the 6kWh battery for 1-2 bed properties; 9kWh battery for 3 bed properties; 12kWh battery for 4 bed properties.
For compatibility with different heat pump models please contact us for advice - not all heat pumps are compatible with Sunamps and selection of the appropriate Sunamp for a particular heat pump may not be obvious.
