Commercial Water heaters
Commercial water heaters account for a large percentage of the energy needs of any facility. These needs may be a little lower in the case of office buildings or certain industries that don't require round the clock supply of hot water. But in the case of hotels, the percentage may be as high as 40% of the total energy bill. Therefore, it is essential that a commercial water heater have the highest degree of energy efficiency. These water heaters can be storage models or commercial tankless water heaters, electric or gas powered. There are also heat pump and tankless coil models, as well as hot water supply boilers that are only used to supply portable hot water to a facility, and do not meet space heating needs.
The energy efficiency of commercial water heaters can differ based on the fuel type and the design of the water heating system. Typically, a commercial gas water heater has a thermal efficiency between 80% and 95%. In the case of commercial electric water heater, the energy efficiency depends on the amount of stand by heat loss. The lesser the standby heat loss the higher the energy efficiency. The design of the water heating system must also promote greater energy efficiency. For instance, buildings that have large peak water heating loads will need a storage system to store hot water. Large buildings also require pumps and valves to pump hot water throughout the facility.
Some of the major brands that manufacture commercial water heaters are American Water Heater, Bradford White, Bock and Lochinvar. Designing and installing a commercial water heater is a complicated process, and should be trusted to professionals only.
