The future of hot water is electric. Is your business ready?
The Plumbing & Heating industry is rapidly evolving towards electric heating solutions. As we move away from gas, Installers are faced with a challenge of how to stay competitive, while growing their business.
As we electrify, hot water storage is opening an expanding market for Installers. There are many homes who either need a hot water cylinder to compliment their heat pump system or are looking for more efficient ways to heat their water with solar PV, or direct electric heating.
Smart hot water is going to become even more in demand, as the energy consumption from the hot water will only increase.
Many Installers, and homeowners, are unaware of the benefits smart hot water storage can bring, and just how easy it is to offer it today.
This is why we’ve rolled out Mixergy Experts, our dedicated programme for Installers.
So how does smart hot water storage work?
Flexible, efficient and futureproof
We’ve used innovative engineering and machine learning to transform the everyday hot water cylinder into the leading smart hot water solution. The Mixergy X cylinder can significantly reduces both the carbon footprint and energy bills.
With our patented technology, homeowners can heat only what the home needs by partially heating the cylinder, with a direct electric and/or gas connection. This allows us to deliver hot water up to 10x faster, be a third smaller and build schedules with smart tariffs; a massive bonus for homeowners you service looking to install smarter solutions.
The Mixergy X is also compatible with third party solar diverters, at anytime, making is Solar Ready.
Harnessing Solar Power
The Solar X cylinder means homeowners can start to maximise their self-consumption without the need for a traditional battery. Our innovative engineering and machine learning transform the humble hot water cylinder into the leading smart hot water solution for Solar PV.
The Mixergy Solar Diverter monitors the homeowner’s solar power and automatically diverts excess energy to hot water.
Heat Pump Ready
Both the Solar X and Mixergy X are heat pump ready. This means at anytime in the future, the home simply needs the Mixergy Heat Pump Kit to connect with the Heat Pump.
With a Heat Pump, the technology works slightly different. To ensure the Heat Pump system is as efficient as possible, the whole cylinder is heated using an externally mounted plate heat exchanger. Check out this animation to learn more about it works:
Superior Efficiency with a indoor Heat Pump
The Mixergy iHP X is small, quiet, and efficient. It heats the homeowner’s water with a fast, reliable, and convenient integrated indoor heat pump. The iHP X allows those who install it to heat only what they need and provides reassurance in the knowledge that hot water will be available fast while also reducing the energy needed for the home.
Our award-winning Integrated Heat Pump has been shown to heat water up to 10x faster than conventional heat pump cylinders, providing usable hot water to homeowners within just 30 minutes.
The detachable head unit makes it easy to transport, install, and service. With a 25-year warranty on the cylinder and a 5-year warranty on the head unit, the iHP X has been designed and built with the future in mind.
