A buffer tank is integrated into the system when additional volume of hot water is required to provide
smoother and uninterrupted operation of a heat pump.
Incorporated into a space heating system, the buffer tank increases the volume of water a heat pump has
to heat, allowing excess heat to be stored until it is required and reducing the short cycling during normal operation
of the heat pump. It also provides a thermal store to aid defrost of the heat pump and protect the water within the
system from cooling. As a result it prevents the radiators or underfloor heating from getting colder during the heat
pump defrost cycles.
Aerocyl Vented Buffer Tanks can be incorporated into traditional open vented system, allowing for
installation of a heat pump in older properties. They are insulated with environmentally friendly foam lagging, giving
low standing heat loss and can be supplied with an electric immersion heater for back-up heating on request.
- Range of capacities: From 50 to 150 litres.
- Insulation: 50mm-thick environmentally friendly CFC and HCFC-free polyurethane foam lagging.
- Guarantee: 2-year guarantee against faulty materials and manufacture.
