The 100mm of polyurethane insulation helps to keep the water in the Akvaterm AkvaStandard accumulator tank as warm as possible. A 2000lt AkvaStandard accumulator tank was heated to 75º C and then left for 13 days. The temperature in the tank on day 13 was 55 degrees C which I think is pretty impressive.
The AkvaStandard comes with a DHW coil in the top of the tank - mains pressure cold water feeds into this coil and comes out hot. This is useful as it means you get good pressure to your hot water (no need for shower pumps), you do not need a cold water tank in your loft either, and your hot water is totally separate from the actual water in the tank.
The AkvaStandard can come as a 1.5bar tank for vented systems, or as a 3 bar tank for pressurised systems. Each tanks comes with tappings to allow you to link heat sources to the tank (such as a boiler stove), electrical heating elements (at the bottom and half way up the tank), thermostats, a tapping on top for the pressure relief / air bleed, and a hatch at the bottom which allows you to install an extra coil if you want to use a secondary hot water coil or for solar thermal perhaps.
Do bear in mind that these accumulator tanks weigh a lot: you will need to have enough hands to move it around when the tank shows up on site. We recently moved a 360kg, 2500lt AkvaStandard tank and, as we did not have a forklift on site, we used 6 men, ropes, some planks, and rollers to move it around. It was quite easy in the end but a little bit of pre-planning is necessary.
We can help you with specifiying the right size of tank for your installation whether that is in terms of your boiler stove or log gasification boiler.
