  • Thermostatically controlled heating can be provisioned as per requirements.
  • The system can be used for small to large number of users.
  • Minimum human intervention
  • Useful for Armed Forces personnel stationed at extreme location
  • Safe to discharge water to the environment or can be reused after proper treatment
