Bengaluru, May 3, 2016 - Racold Thermo Private Limited, India’s largest manufacturer and provider of water heating solutions, launched a new range of solar water heaters ‘Alpha Pro’ at press conference held in Bengaluru today.

We, at Racold Thermo, have been setting the benchmark in the industry by introducing innovative, state-of-the-art technology and aesthetically designed products every year. The new technology bears testimony to our ability of constantly offering innovative and customized solutions for our customers.”
