The Challenge

The old boiler and storage tank system the complex was using was highly inefficient and needed repairs. The management company was concerned about its effect on their bottom line. They weren’t ready to replace it with multiple tank-style heaters that would need to be individually vented and piped, either.

The Intellihot Solution

Using a single iQ1001, the building’s managers were able to get a high efficiency solution to their costly issue. Intellihot’s water heater helped the apartment complex reduce its gas consumption. They were also able to significantly reduce their installation costs with a unit that only requires single connections for piping and venting.
