Whether you are planning a new build or looking to upgrade your existing home's hot water system, the SolarPeak AP40 is the ideal choice for medium-to-large households. As the authorised Waikato SolarPeak dealers, Pratts provides industry-leading expertise, quality assurance, and seamless installation services tailored to your local council requirements.
Why Choose the SolarPeak AP40 for Your Project?
Perfect for New NZ Builds: Incorporating solar water heating into your initial building and plumbing design delivers optimum performance and cost-effectiveness without lifestyle compromises. It adds minimal cost to your overall build budget while immediately boosting the home's energy efficiency rating and resale value.
Easy Retrofits for Existing Homes: Installing a SolarPeak system is a highly cost-effective way to reduce your monthly energy consumption. In most cases, the AP40 can be integrated directly with your existing hot water cylinder. If you want to upgrade to a modern mains-pressure system or a larger cylinder, our trade professionals can guide you through the best options.
Versatile Integration: The SolarPeak system is highly adaptable and can be seamlessly integrated with underfloor heating, gas continuous flow systems, wetback fireplaces, and heat pumps to create a complete, future-proofed home heating network.
The SolarPeak AP40 Package Includes:
This premium system is engineered for storage cylinders ranging from 300 to 400 Litres and includes:
- 2 x SolarPeak AP20 collectors (high-efficiency solar tubes designed for NZ conditions)

Please Note: This package excludes the physical storage cylinder. Additional pricing is available for compatible solar cylinders and specialized valve kits. Retrofit installations are subject to the suitability and condition of your current hot water cylinder.
