Key Specifications

High-Capacity 250L Hot Water Storage

The Megaflo Eco Direct 250L provides a large 250 litre nominal storage capacity, making it suitable for homes where domestic hot water demand is higher. The cylinder is particularly suited to larger family properties and installations with multiple bathrooms.

With a maximum flow rate of 76 litres per minute at 3 bar, the cylinder is designed to support high-demand hot water use while maintaining mains-pressure performance.

Dual Titanium Immersion Elements

The cylinder features two 3kW titanium immersion elements rated at 240V. When both elements are used, the specified heat-up time is 121 minutes, providing a dedicated electric heating solution for the stored hot water.

The titanium immersion elements are designed as part of the Megaflo Eco Direct's direct heating system, making the cylinder suitable for installations where electric immersion heating is required.

Efficient Insulation

The Megaflo Eco Direct 250L uses 60mm CFC-free polyurethane foam insulation to help reduce heat loss from the stored water. Its specified standing heat loss is 1.61 kWh/24h, supporting efficient hot water storage.

Internal Floating Baffle

An internal floating baffle is incorporated into the cylinder design, meaning an external expansion vessel is not required. This helps provide a streamlined unvented hot water cylinder installation.

Factory-Fitted Unvented Components

The Megaflo Eco Direct 250L is supplied with a range of factory-fitted unvented components, including:

• T&P valve
• 3 bar PRV
• Tundish
• Full unvented kit

This supplied configuration is designed to provide the key components required for the unvented cylinder installation.

Pressure Performance

The cylinder has a specified 3 bar operating pressure and can accommodate a maximum mains pressure of 16 bar. Combined with its stated 76 L/min maximum flow rate at 3 bar, it is designed for demanding domestic hot water requirements.

Ideal For

• Larger family homes with higher hot water demand.
• Properties with multiple bathrooms.
• Domestic installations requiring 250 litres of stored hot water.
• Applications requiring high mains-pressure flow performance.
• Installations where an external expansion vessel is not required.
