Thermomax DF100, 30 tube system installed with a 210 litre vented twin core cylinder.

The direct flow tube is ideally suited to wall mounted installations as the antifreeze solution is pumped through the tubes. Each tube is angled at 65 degrees to face the sun and gives maximum performance in the winter and good performance in the summer for a family of five.
