The Manual Switch De-frost Element 12V, provided by C.A.K Tanks, is an ingeniously designed system aimed at preventing the freezing of water stored in tanks, particularly under cold conditions down to -25°C. This stainless steel element, installed through the sidewall of the tank 55mm from the base and ideally near the pump outlet, ensures the water remains above freezing temperatures, safeguarding the tank's contents without the need for additional power sources. While the element is effective for tanks up to 45 litres on its own, larger tanks might require extra insulation, such as tank wrap 256614 or Styrofoam, to achieve optimal protection levels. This manual switch element is a critical component for maintaining fluid water in extreme weather, enhancing the reliability of your water system in your motorhome or camper.

Incorporating the Manual Switch De-frost Element 12V into your vehicle's water system not only provides essential freeze protection but also offers a way to manage battery power consumption efficiently. By pairing the element with tank insulation wrap, heat loss from the tank walls is significantly reduced, meaning the de-frost element operates for shorter periods, thereby conserving energy. This strategic combination ensures your water supply remains unfrozen, with the added benefit of substantial power savings. The manual switch provides easy control, allowing users to activate the element as needed, ensuring optimal protection and efficiency. C.A.K Tanks' commitment to quality and practicality is evident in this product, making it a must-have for adventurers looking to brave the colder climates without compromising on water availability.
