Noritz NRC111
Nov 9th
The Noritz NRC111 is a condensing tankless water heater. This is the only condensing tankless that Noritz makes and it produces 11.1 gallons of hot water per minute.
The Noritz NRC111 utilizes a dual heat exchanger, which is made from a fusion of stainless steel and copper exchangers. The 100% stainless steel component captures the residual heat from the exhaust temperature to preheat the incoming water before it runs through the main copper heat exchanger. This results in dramatic reduction of carbon dioxide and increases the tankless heater’s efficiency level to over 93%! Another benefit of this technology is lower exhaust temperatures, which means less costly PVC can be used for its venting. A PVC adapter is built into the Noritz heater for easy installation.
Specifications
Condensing technology – The most advanced Noritz unit, over 93% efficiency
Combi-system set-up - Open loop system functionality for both potable water heating and space heating combination system.
Safety lock out - Default max. 120 degrees (refer to owner’s manual for higher temp).
Dual flame burner – Minimizes temperature fluctuations.
Fully modulating – Automatically adjusts burner level accordingly.
Dual heat exchanger – 100% stainless steel corrosion resistant heat exchanger fused with a commercial grade copper heat exchanger.
Turbo Flow – Up to 11.1 GPM @ 35 degree temperature rise (8.4 GPM @ 45 degree rise).
Quick Connect – Doubles output by connecting 2 identical tankless units with a single cable.
Multi System - Up to 24 units can be linked and operated by a single system controller.
Direct ignition – No standby pilot light.
Thermal fuse – Automatic overheat protection system.
Resin coated PC board – Increases tankless durability and protection from elements.
Automatic air regulator – Monitors the Noritz tankless internal temperature/maximizes burner efficiency.
Neutralizer included - Built-in neutralizing system for condensation.
Request a Home Evaluation – See if a Noritz tankless can be installed in your home.
Noritz Tankless

Noritz vision is to fundamentally change the way hot water is viewed within North America. A transition that can reduce the negative environmental effects caused by manufacturing and using inefficient water heating appliances. Yet, comfort will not be sacrificed as technology is making water heating over 90% efficient.
Models
Noritz has a number of tankless water heaters, but only a select few are really capable of being used in Canada and Ontario for that matter. These below are the most popular tankless models currently.
- NR66
- NR71
- NR83
- NR98
- NR111
- NRC111
The NRC111 is Noritz condensing tankless coming in around the 92% efficiency range.
Tankless Brands
Jul 11th
There are a number of different brands of tankless water heaters below you will find a short synopsis of each of each tankless system.
Rinnai Tankless
Easily one of the biggest suppliers of tankless units, they are known for stability and reliability. Of all the experience we have had with tankless water heaters Rinnai’s Tankless is by far the most reliable unit on the market today.
Navien Tankless
This one is often spelled incorrectly as “Navian”. It has been know as the the most efficient tankless with their units reaching 98% efficiency. They have had reliability issues in the past but they are on to the 4th generation now and most of the issues have been cleared up.
Noritz Tankless
Not the most popular brand of tankless but it is a nice unit none the less. Reliability is lacking a bit but it makes it up in its efficiency.
Bosch Tankless
Commonly sold in Home Depots, these tankless systems are good units but they are so frequently incorrectly sized and installed that they have developed a bad reputation due to this.
Takagi Tankless
If for some reason I couldn’t get a Rinnai tankless I would choose the Takagi tankless model for sure, high efficiency, reliability, and easy venting. What more could you ask for?
John Wood Tankless
This brand can be difficult to find in Toronto or Ontario for that matter, its mainly sold in the US and is made by GSW.

The Noritz 842 tankless water heater also uses a dual flame in its burner. This is a system that recirculates the exhaust gases back into the combustion chamber to burn off any excess fuel and particulate mater so as to increase efficiency and provide, essentially free heat.
Single Burner
Dual Burner
These energy efficient models use dual heat exchangers to increase efficiency to over 93%. Available form Norits are the N-0842MC and the N-0842MC-DV, the tankless come in either direct or power vent.
