Elson_90L_02The self-contained Portable Emergency Tank (PET) from Elson, offers local authority housing and maintenance departments, installers and householders a solution when domestic water heating failure or cut-off cannot be speedily rectified. Easily moved to site, the groundbreaking PET - with its 3kW immersion heater - is readily connected to a domestic mains cold water tap, producing a bath (55 litres at 60 degrees C) of usable hot water to householders in around an hour, from start-up, at minimum cost.

Elson’s PET also prevents the need for stop-gap boiling water products, often poorly positioned - for instance on the edge of the bath - and only capable of producing Elson_90L_01small quantities of scalding, potentially dangerous, hot water. The robust unit’s ease-of-use means that on-site contractors can carry on with remedial work or keep to schedule on a programme of planned refurbishment -even if the normal hot water supply may be affected.

The PET is housed in a Plastic Omnium 90 litre two wheeled container, showing how versatile the latter can be in terms of final application and just how working closely with our customer base can provide innovative solutions to product / service issues.
