novolto P3000 (3.0 kW immersion heater)

The smart immersion heater is installed in your home's hot water storage tank, where it functions as an auxiliary heater. Electricity is converted into heat for your domestic hot water. To the extent that you use electricity for your hot water, you save on heating gas or oil. It is most effective to operate the smart immersion heater in conjunction with a photovoltaic system. Our smart immersion heater uses exclusively the excess electricity from your photovoltaic system that you would otherwise feed into the grid. This way, you not only save gas or oil but also increase your self-consumption.

With the smart immersion heater, you immediately increase the benefits of your photovoltaic system and extend the service life of your heating system. Instead of feeding electricity into the grid, you can use it to heat your domestic water for a large part of the year and give your heating system a break. This increases your self-consumption rate, avoids emissions, and saves your heating budget.

A solar thermal system uses solar energy to heat domestic hot water and/or heating water. A photovoltaic system generates electricity for use in your own home – excess power is generally fed into the grid. The smart immersion heater absorbs this surplus electricity and uses it to heat your domestic water.

Suitable for compatible hot-water and buffer tanks. Check the tank manufacturer's approval, connection, installation space and material requirements before purchase.

To determine the available power for the immersion heater, you need a device that knows whether surplus electricity is currently being fed into the grid. Our app connects to the device and transmits the values to the immersion heater. The novolto immersion heater is compatible with the Tibber Pulse and PowerOpti from PowerFox. We are continuously working on integrating other providers.

Automatic surplus solar power control requires a supported measurement solution, such as a compatible Shelly device, Tibber Pulse or poweropti, or a suitable system connected through MQTT. Check that your chosen solution works with your electricity meter and is supported by novolto before purchasing.
