SunTank – Products

The SunTank solar geysers are the finest made in South Africa. The technology is based on international best-practice and adopted for the unique climate conditions of the country and the region. Tanks are made of Stainless steel and the panels are copper and aluminium.

Solar Tanks Built to Last

The SunTank stainless steel solar geyser are made Indirect and Direct, each range come in sizes of 100, 150, 200, 300 and 400 litres, horizontal and vertical.

All solar geysers supplied to frost-prone areas are the Indirect type which comes with a double-jacket heat exchanger. This technology enables the panels that are filled with antifreeze glycol fluid to transfer the sun’s heat to the water in the pressure cylinder, in the most efficient way.

Solar Panels Efficient and Long-lasting – the ‘working’ horse’ of solar heating

The SunTank flat-plate solar collectors panels are based on the most widely tried & tested solar heating technology around the world. The reason for that is that the flat-plate panel is cost-efficient and effective for 10, 20 years and beyond.
