As one of Miami Beach’s most prominent hotels, Loews Miami Beach Hotel attracts a diverse clientele of visitors. The 2017-renovated interiors are a modern homage to the historic style. In addition to the decor, the hotel spent 50 million dollars revamping the lobby, spa, kids’ club, and pool deck, adding a VIP check-in, and updating all 790 rooms with elegant, contemporary decor. This hotel had three large boilers and stored 1200 gallons of water, and these outdated boilers wasted enormous amounts of energy and space.
The Problem
The hotel was operating with (3) Boilers and 1200 gallons of stored water. The space-hogging mammoth tanks were very inefficient, costly and posed risks, of leaks and harmful bacteria.
The Intellihot Solution
Two iQ1501 Tankless Hot Water Heaters were chosen for this project. Energy efficiency, size, safety, and ease of maintenance were all factors in the decision.
