Vulcan Electric Hot Water: Built Tough
Vulcan electric storage systems are famous for their “tough as nails” reputation. Constructed from high-strength steel and featuring a ceramic lining bonded to the inside of every cylinder, these tanks are designed to withstand the pressures of daily use.
- Versatile Sizing: From compact 50L units for apartments to massive 400L “behemoths” for large families, there is a Vulcan for every home.
- Quality Protection: Every tank features high-quality materials and a 10-year cylinder warranty for long-term peace of mind.
- Standard Footprint: Because they use a standard tank size, replacing your old unit with a new Vulcan is usually a straightforward and cost-effective process.
Efficient Vulcan Gas Storage Solutions
Vulcan gas systems are a simple and effective way to lower your household running costs. Their storage range provides constant mains pressure hot water, meaning you can run multiple taps simultaneously without a drop in performance.
- Quick Recovery: The 4-star rated Vulcan Quick Recovery models (available in 135L or 170L) ensure that even after a long shower, the system heats back up rapidly.
- Flexible Installation: With balanced flues and durable steel jackets, models like the Vulcan Freeloader can even be recessed into wall cavities to save space.
- Lower Costs: Utilizing natural gas generally results in significantly lower energy bills compared to standard electric storage units.
Maintaining Legacy Vulcan Solar Systems
While Vulcan no longer produces new solar units, many Adelaide homes still rely on the Vulcan Solar VSi Storage Tank. These gas-boosted units are built with vitreous enamel to prevent rusting and provide high-pressure performance.
If your older solar system is playing up, our technicians are experts in troubleshooting legacy models. We carry a wide range of spare parts on our vans to address issues with sensors, boosters, or valves. If your system is finally beyond repair, we can provide a clear upfront quotation for a modern, high-efficiency upgrade.
