This system pairs the Samsung Mono 8kW air source heat pump (6.37kW nominal winter output) with the Joule Kodiak 200L Slimline Pre-Plumbed Cylinder, giving a complete heating and hot water solution for medium-sized UK homes where floor space is at a premium. The Kodiak Slimline cylinder arrives factory pre-plumbed with its zonal control manifold already fitted, cutting installation time compared with plumbing a heat pump to a standard cylinder on site.
The patented modular zonal control manifold manages 3 zones - 1 hot water and 2 heating circuits - from a single compact unit, so radiators, underfloor heating, and domestic hot water can all run to their own independent temperature settings. Built around Samsung's proven Gen 6 R32 monobloc platform, the heat pump operates down to -25°C outdoor air temperature, and the slimline cylinder profile suits installations where a narrower footprint is needed.

Additional Components Are Not Included
This listing covers the Samsung 8kW heat pump and Joule Kodiak 200L Slimline cylinder only. Items such as the potable expansion vessel, Y strainer with isolation valve, braided hoses, anti-vibration feet, and heat pump fluid are not included and should be ordered separately to complete the installation.
MCS-Certified Installation Required
Installation must be carried out by an MCS-certified installer to ensure compliance with UK regulations, to qualify for available government funding schemes such as the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, and to validate the full manufacturer warranty on both heat pump and cylinder.
Long-Term Warranty Cover
The heat pump carries a 7-year warranty when commissioned by Joule or a trained installer, while the Kodiak cylinder body is covered for up to 25 years with registration, and its components for 2 years - giving strong long-term protection across the whole system.
Slimline Cylinder Footprint
The Kodiak Slimline 200L case is narrower than the standard-profile 200L cylinder, suiting installations where floor space or cupboard width is limited.
Factory Pre-Plumbed Manifold
The cylinder arrives with its hydraulic and zonal control manifold pre-fitted, cutting on-site plumbing time compared with a bare cylinder and separate control kit.
3-Zone Independent Control
The patented modular manifold manages 1 hot water zone and 2 heating zones independently, so radiators and underfloor heating can each run at their own optimum temperature.
True Monobloc Heat Pump
Samsung's Gen 6 outdoor unit has the entire refrigeration circuit factory-sealed, removing the need for on-site F-Gas handling.
Cold-Climate Reliability
Rated to operate continuously down to -25°C outdoor air temperature, maintaining heating output through UK winters.
Compatible Control Kits & Wi-Fi
Supports Samsung SmartThings app connectivity via an optional Wi-Fi kit for remote monitoring and control of heating and hot water.

Why is the heat pump rated at both 8kW and 6.37kW?
8kW is the unit's nominal summer-rated capacity. In UK winter design conditions (A7/W35), the same unit delivers 6.37kW of usable heating output, which is the figure most relevant for sizing against a property's actual winter heat loss.
What comes in the box with this system?
This listing includes the Samsung 8kW heat pump and the 200L Kodiak Slimline cylinder only. Additional components - expansion vessel, Y strainer, braided hoses, anti-vibration feet, and heat pump fluid - are not included and should be ordered separately.
What is different about the Slimline cylinder compared to the standard version?
The Slimline profile has a narrower diameter than the standard 200L Kodiak cylinder, making it a better fit where installation space is limited, such as a narrow airing cupboard.
Is this cylinder suitable for a home with underfloor heating and radiators?
Yes. The 3-zone manifold is designed to run 1 hot water zone and 2 independent heating zones, making it well suited to properties combining underfloor heating in some areas with radiators elsewhere.
Is MCS certification required?
Yes. Installation should be carried out by an MCS-certified installer to comply with UK regulations, access funding schemes such as the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, and validate the manufacturer warranty.
