Heat Exchanger

Navien tankless water heaters utilizes dual stainless steel heat exchangers, providing 3.8 to 4.5 times longer life-expectancy and erosion resistance over the copper heat exchangers used in other tankless brands. Navien’s heat exchangers operate with relatively low water temperature, minimizing damage from hard water conditions and maintains efficiency levels. Its always important to have your tankless flushed once every 2 years or so to remove any buildup from within the heat exchangers.

Efficiency

Because of Naviens high efficiency the tankless can be vented in PVC piping.  Basically excess heat is exhausted with all the combustion gasses in conventional tank systems but a Navien uses this to further heat the water. This results in significantly lower exhaust temperatures and allows for the use of PVC exhaust vent piping.

Canada's Wonderland in Maple

Maple Tankless

Maple

Maple has a population or just over 50,000 with most of the homes being single detached.  Owning a detached home increases the likeliness of a tankless water heater meeting the venting requirements and being installed.  Many people want to upgrade their systems but are unable to due to venting issues associated with the tankless.

Homes in Maple are also on average quite large, this poses a secondary question… how big of a tankless water heater should I go? A REP for the Maple region can come out free of charge and answer these questions for you.

If you’re living in the Maple region a tankless is a great upgrade for your home saving you money and using less energy which ultimately helps the environment.
