German startup Nexol Photovolthermic has released a new hybrid solar water heater for residential applications. The NEX RS series comes in four sizes: 80 liters, 120 liters, 200 liters, and 300 liters.

The system has 1.5 kW of heating output, which the manufacturer said ensures rapid hot water preparation. It can also be connected to a power output of up to 2.5 kW at 300 V (DC).

“This is particularly important for larger households or demanding applications,” the company said. “The flexibility in heating output helps prevent the devices from being oversized or wasting energy.”

Nexol said the hybrid solar boiler offers a complete solution that can be installed as a do-it-yourself project.

It claimed that the plug-and-play system saves time and reduces potential errors by eliminating the need for heating element installation. It designed the device specifically to avoid the need for such installations.

The company said the device starts at €700 ($761.80) and will be available through all authorized partners.
