Photovoltaic Caravan Boiler (10L) Fothermo

A hot shower in your caravan. Any time, anywhere. Enjoy greater independence, more freedom and greater comfort! The photovoltaic caravan boiler offers the ideal solution for a reliable and sustainable way of heating water in your caravan. Once installed, the boiler produces free hot water for years to come. Powered solely by the sun. The 10-litre caravan boiler is ideal for motorhomes, caravans or self-converted campervans. In short, wherever hot water is needed in mobile applications.

Connect the photovoltaic module directly to the boiler:
Up to 1,500 Wp of photovoltaic power can be connected to the boiler. The MPP tracker, which is already integrated into the boiler, ensures that as much energy as possible from the sun is converted into heat within the boiler. To put the boiler into operation, simply connect the photovoltaic modules to the boiler. No additional equipment, such as charge controllers, MPP trackers, inverters or anything else, is required.

Details

• More freedom:
  • A hot shower after an eventful day’s hiking or sightseeing in the city makes travelling much more enjoyable. The photovoltaic boiler heats up during the day, so you can enjoy a hot shower as soon as you return to your caravan.
• Greater independence:
  • The photovoltaic boiler is powered exclusively by electricity. This electricity comes either directly from the photovoltaic module or from a battery. The annual gas inspection by the TÜV, the regular purchase of new gas cylinders or refuelling with diesel for hot water production are now a thing of the past. The photovoltaic boiler produces hot water free of charge and independently of fossil fuels.
• Renewable hot water production:
  • Use photovoltaic electricity. Direct connection of up to 1500Wp photovoltaic power.
• Smart battery operation:
  • Use of surplus energy from a 12V or 24V battery to heat the water.
• Anti-freeze:
  • Easy to drain the water in winter.
• Made in Germany:
  • All boilers are developed and manufactured in Germany.
• No fossil fuels:
  • The smell of gas or exhaust fumes during hot water production are now a thing of the past!
• Specially designed for caravans:
  • Innovative technologies and intelligent algorithms for maximum comfort.
• Flexible installation:
  • The boiler can be installed either horizontally on a base plate or vertically on a wall.
