Super Cylinders – Designed by Heat Geek
Benefits
- 6.0m² (2×3.0m²) Heat Pump Coil with reverse return configuration. (Please note: 4.0m² on some smaller models.)
- 35mm Diffuser Tube on 1″ F BSP Cold Inlet to increase stratification
- 320x230mm steel plate for mounting controls and/or product literature.
- Tall and slim construction to maximise stratification.
Bespoke hot water cylinder manufacturer, Newark Cylinders, have launched the Super Cylinders range – a range of ultra-high efficiency cylinders (primarily for use with Heat Pumps) designed by leading heating experts, Heat Geek.
The Super Cylinders (formerly known as the ‘HG Series’) has been designed to be the most efficient range of heat pump-ready hot water cylinders available in the UK. This is being continuously and independently measured by the live performance data that is available at Heat Pump Monitor.
The nine taller Super Cylinder Models feature a 6.0m² surface area coil (made up of two 3.0m² coils). These two 3.0m² coils can be used separately with different heat sources, or as a single source 6.0m² coil. Five of the smaller models’ coils have a 4.0m² surface area.
All models also include other features specifically designed to optimise stratification, helping heat pumps and other heat sources to maintain very high levels of efficiency.
The Super Cylinders are also designed to maximise the effect of what Heat Geek calls “the heat source saturation point”. This means that heat pumps will heat the hot water with a much lower flow temperature, rapidly increasing their efficiency. If used with a gas boiler, this will mean the boiler will either completely condense in hot water (increasing gas efficiency by over 10%, if controlled as Heat Geek suggests), or give the fastest recovery time currently available on the market.
The Super Cylinders A models are available from 150L to 500L. The Super Cylinders B models are designed for installation spaces with restricted height and are available in four sizes; 200L, 230L, 250L, and 300L. Furthermore, all Super Cylinders models include a steel mounting plate.

- 1¾” F BSP Immersion Heater Boss (positioned 600mm up from the base of the Super Cylinder)
- 22mm Compression Secondary Return
- ½” F BSP Drain Connection
