Reply To: Hot water system

Hi Dave, when i replaced the plumbing i added a calorifier for the hot water system. We mainly pontoon hop so it runs of the 240v circuit (have also fitted a inverter/charger). When we get the chance to do some long distance cruising i will change the element to a 12v version and add a wind charger and set it up so the excess from the turbine after batteries are charged will go into the calorifier. At the same time i also added solid moulded plastic freshwater tanks and re-piped with hep2o pipe and fittings. Has been serving well for past 2 years just great ( looks around for some wood to touch).. The system you finally went for would really need to suit the type of sailing you planning?
