ThermoStor Akvaterm Accumulators

For the greatest efficiency with your biomass boiler or solar thermal heating system we recommend that you use a Akvaterm accumulator to store your hot water. The Akvaterm accumulators are a thermal store which retains the heat generated by your heating system for use when you need it.

The Akvaterm range of accumulator tanks are particularly suitable as thermal stores for heating systems using solid fuel boiler systems. Wood burning boilers work most efficiently when fired at high temperature and lose much of their benefit if banked down. Using an accumulator tank means the heat is stored from one load of fuel, meaning you can enjoy hot running water and central heating all day from a single loading of your boiler. This gets around the issue that plagues many renewable home heating systems.

For the investment of a decent accumulator tank, you can save noticeably more on your heating bills. By having to heat water less, you save fuel and therefore save money. An Akvaterm accumulator tank will also make your biomass boiler almost as convenient as a standard gas combi-boiler and more reliable.
