Paloma Water Heaters

Discover the excellence of Paloma Water Heaters, meticulously manufactured in Japan since 1930. Specifically designed for South African conditions and altitude variations. Paloma offers reliable 20l and 26l water heaters that operate seamlessly on both LP Gas and Natural Gas. These gas geysers are engineered for outdoor installation, providing hot water to multiple outlets simultaneously. 

Paloma Gas Water Heaters stand out from the rest with their advanced features andexceptional reliability. The smart unit operates at a max of 64-watt consumption (230V), equivalent to a single light bulb. Thanks to Paloma's smart features, it ignites and heats only the required water needed ensuring gas savings. Unlike other branded units, it doesn't run at max demand if its not needed. The integrated fan guarantees a reliable air supply leading to increased flame temperature and a more complete combustion optimizing gas savings considering the higher output temperatures.

Paloma have an optional Remote Control unit that allows for easy temperature adjustment. It can extend the cylinder life as the user can set the exact desired water output temperature. The controller eliminates the need to mix in cold water to achieve the desired temperature. Users can optimize energy efficiency and reduce unnecessary energy consumption..

The Paloma can also be integrated inline with your new or existing solar geyser. In the event of a cloudy day or a higher than expected hot water consumption, The unit will detect that a tap has been opened with a flow sensor and read the current water temperature. If the reading is below the set temperature, The unit will ignite.  

The innovative EZ-Link capability lets you link two Paloma geysers to meet higher hot water demands or accommodate low ambient temperatures effectively. Intelligent hot water delivery driven by sensor-controlled heating, guarantees a constant water temperature optimizing gas usage. A sensor-controlled water pressure monitor automatically adjusts water pressure entering the geyser for efficiency.

How many gas cylinders do I need?

At The LpGas Man, We suggest a cylinder setup of 2 x 48kg bottles but the unit will work with 19kg cylinders. The one cylinder will be in use and the other is backup. If the property has multiple gas geysers or gas points and require more gas, We can assist and help towards getting fire department approval to hold over 100kg's of gas on the ERF.
