Case Overview
Many homes in New Caledonia have profiled metal roofs, with strong sun, strong winds and a humid sub-tropical climate. A local installer wanted a compact thermosyphon water heater that sits low on the roof, with electric backup and a simple controller, and which a small crew could install in a day. Millionsun configured and packed a kit to match.
Client Requirements
The partner’s key concern was leaks and wind damage on metal roofs, as well as installation time.
- Metal-roof fixing: brackets that anchor firmly to profiled metal roofs, without leaks.
- Wind resistance: strong fixing for tank and collector.
- Backup heating: electric element and controller built into the tank, for periods without sun.
- One-visit installation: a pre-labelled kit that a small crew can finish in a single visit.
Our Solution
We kept the system simple, and focused on fixings, backup and kit organisation.
- Low-profile frame: a low tank position to limit wind loading.
- Metal-roof brackets: fixings with sealing pads for profiled roofs.
- Tank-end controller: electric backup with an indicator display fitted to the tank end, pre-wired at the factory.
- Sealed collector: weather seal on the glass edges, for humid conditions.
- Fixing guide: illustrated instructions on bracket spacing and sealing, for the installer’s crews.

The Result
The installer has a one-visit kit that suits local roofs and wind conditions.
- A small crew can fit each unit in a single visit, from a pre-labelled kit.
- Factory pre-wiring of the controller removes a common source of site errors.
- The installer has a unit with solar and electric backup in a single package.
