What Is a Wetbacks Masport?


A wetback, often referred to as a water booster, is an accessory that attaches to your wood fire. It captures the heat generated by the fire and transfers it to your hot water cylinder, providing a continuous supply of hot water. This system is especially beneficial in areas like Christchurch, where winters are long and cold.


Benefits of Choosing a Wetbacks Masport


1. Energy Efficiency


One of the standout features of the Wetbacks Masport is its energy efficiency. By utilizing the heat from your wood fire, it reduces the need for electric or gas water heating. This not only lowers your energy bills but also makes your home more sustainable.


2. Reliability During Power Outages


Christchurch is no stranger to power outages, especially during winter storms. With a Wetbacks Masport, you can rest easy knowing that your hot water supply won't be interrupted, even when the power goes out.


3. Eco-Friendly Heating


Using wood as a fuel source is a renewable and environmentally friendly choice. Masport's wetbacks are designed to maximize heat transfer, ensuring efficient use of resources and reducing your carbon footprint.


4. Durability and Performance


Masport is renowned for its high-quality craftsmanship. Their wetbacks are built to last, offering consistent performance over the years. The heavy-duty steel construction ensures they can withstand the intense heat of a wood fire, providing reliable service for your home.


5. Cost Savings


By reducing your reliance on electric or gas water heating, a Wetbacks Masport can lead to significant savings on your energy bills. Over time, the initial investment pays for itself, making it a cost-effective solution for homeowners.


Reliable Even in the Coldest Weather


Christchurch winters are not for the faint-hearted. A few winters ago, we had a stretch of nights where the temperature dropped below zero. With my old system, the water would run cold and the house never felt completely warm. Since switching to a Wetbacks Masport, I haven’t experienced that problem.


Masport’s design ensures steady water heating and the robust construction can handle high temperatures and constant use. This reliability is a huge relief, especially for families with kids or elderly members who need warm water and a cozy home.


Personal Experience: A Warm Home and Lower Bills


When I first moved into my Christchurch home, I was concerned about the upcoming winter and the potential heating costs.
