<h1>High-Pressure Solar Geyser Technical Specifications</h1>
<p><strong>Note:</strong> Due to regulatory changes, high-pressure solar geyser tanks are currently unavailable. Please check back soon as they may return to stock.</p>
<h2>🔄 Choosing Between Low and High-Pressure Geysers</h2>
<p>Municipal water supply typically ranges between 1–5 bar (depending on location and time of day).</p>
<h3>High-Pressure Geysers</h3>
<ul>
<li>Can connect directly to municipal water without a pressure-reducing valve</li>
<li>Integrates into existing high-pressure plumbing systems</li>
<li>Delivers strong hot water flow to taps and showers</li>
</ul>
<h3>Low-Pressure Geysers</h3>
<ul>
<li>Open to atmosphere; hot water pressure depends on the geyser’s height</li>
<li>Can be used on municipal water with a pressure-reducing valve on cold water inlet</li>
<li>Auxiliary tank helps balance hot and cold water pressures</li>
</ul>

<h2>💡 Summary: When to Choose a High-Pressure Geyser</h2>
<p>If you want to retain full municipal or pressure-pump pressure in your plumbing system, a high-pressure geyser is the better choice. Note that high-pressure geysers store less thermal energy in the tubes compared to low-pressure types, but deliver stronger flow at outlets.</p>
