How Do Other Systems Compare With Hot Water Maker®?
Tankless Coils
Hot Water Maker®
1 “Instantaneous hot water” only when boiler is hot and wasting heat.
1 High performance insulation keeps water hot even when
boiler is off.
2 Boiler may cycle every hour even when you’re not using hot water,
wasting energy and money.
3 Cannot support high flows (3-5 GPM). Insufficient for simultaneous
shower and dishwasher use.
Gas-Fired and Oil-Fired Models
4 Glass-lined or cement linings can crack or peel,
causing early failure.
5 Cool air drawn up center flue quickly cools heated water,
wasting energy and money.
2 Minimal boiler on/off cycling, saving you up to half the
fuel used by tankless coils.
3 Abundant hot water to serve all your fixtures.
Hot
Water
Maker®®
Advantages
4 Unique inner liner is crack-proof,
resulting in long life.
5 No energy-wasting center flue. High
performance insulation completely
surrounds stored hot water.
Electric Models
6 Rapid recovery for continuous hot water.
Heat up 40 gallons in as fast as 12 minutes.
6 May take over 2 hours to heat 40 gallons of water.
7 Indirects: the most effective means to heat water
according to ACEEE (American Council for an
Energy-Efficient Economy).
7 High cost of electricity makes this the most expensive way to
heat water.
The Original Indirect-Fired Hot Water Maker®
Designed for High-Efficiency and Long Life
Maximized Heat Transfer Technology
Our design begins with copper for maximum heat transfer.
Copper conducts heat:
• 8 times faster than cupronickel.
• 25 times faster than stainless steel.
Maximized height/diameter spacing to create a chimney-effect
of thermal currents which scrubs more heat into the water faster.
High output capabilities to handle larger boilers
(up to 140,000 Btu/hr. output).
Triple-Shell Design
For Performance That Lasts
1. Seamless inner polyethylene water reservoir – not a sprayed-on
glass or epoxy coating.
• Nonmetallic and corrosion-proof for long operating life.
2. High performance, CFC-free molded insulation – rigid urethane
shell completely surrounds reservoir to keep water hot longer.
3. Deep drawn outer steel shell protects against rough handling.
This pressure retention shell is rated to 150 psi and features a tough,
two-part appliance-like finish.

How the SmartControl Works
SmartControl
TM
Designed to Maximize Your
Hot Water Maker Efficiency

The normal heat cycle of your indirect water
heater involves turning your boiler on to make heat, and
turning your circulator pump on to deliver it.
—up to 15% savings—
Yearly Savings Equals:
▲
200 free showers,
▲
160 loads of whites,
▲
100 whirlpool baths,
▲
or 300 loads of dishes free!

When the water heater reaches its required
setting, the boiler and circulator are shut down. The boiler
is full of undelivered heat. If left untapped, this heat is
wasted up the chimney or into the surrounding room.
Tamper resistant temperature
setting stays set – can’t easily be
changed by children.
 The SmartControl , with boiler heat
TM
purge cycle, monitors your water heater temperature,
shutting down your boiler before the potable water
reaches the required setting. The circulator pump
remains on for a period of time, to continue to transfer
energy from your boiler into your Hot Water Maker®.

Ratings Terms:
 First Hour Rating - the ability of the water heater to supply
hot water in a 60-minute
period, assuming that the hour starts with both boiler water
and domestic content up to set temperature. It is the sum of
the usable storage capacity plus the amount of heated
water generated during the 60 minute period. The rate is
based on:
• 90°F temperature rise
• Boiler mass heat sink equivalent to
10 lbs. of water
• No low-limit on boiler

It should not be considered a true measurement of
performance or recovery during a normal intermittent
(real world) draw period of 24 hours. During such
real-world usage, the actual recovery ability of the water
heater may be more or less than the “first-hour” rating,
depending upon usage and installation parameters.
 Continuous Flow - the domestic water flow
that absorbs boiler heat output. The rate is based on:
• 70°F temperature rise
• Boiler high-limit set 20°F (minimum) above
Hot Water Maker water temperature
