Bosch Tankless Hybrid Water Heater Systems
We haven’t really talked about Bosch tankless water heaters a lot here at The Tankless Hot Water Guide as we have had some bad experiences and heard from a lot of people who felt the same way. The issues with the Bosch systems were prevalent around 2006-2008 but Bosch soon came out with the GWH series tankless and corrected a number of problems, to this day the GWH are great water heaters. 
2011 Bosch Introduced The Therm Series
Bosch built upon the success of the GWH systems and developed the Therm braded tankless water heaters. These systems improved upon the GWH with three primary advancements.
- Freeze protection systems were added to the tankless – basically core water containing components are protected with electrical heat tracing wire, this only turns on when the temperature of the tankless reaches the freezing mark.
- Scalability – The Therm tankless systems by Bosch now have the ability to join multiple systems together substantially increasing the amount of hot water produced. Why would you want this? Well if you ever decide to put an addition on your home, add another bathroom, or add an additional high demand hot water appliance, being able to simply add another Bosch tankless makes the process incredibly simple.
- Green Hybrid Tankless – Bosch anticipated the future and has built in an incoming water temperature sensor allowing the tankless system to be pared with a solar hot water collector. This inclusion allows the tankless to “understand” that the incoming water is pre heated and that it only needs to heat the water slight to reach desired temperature.
The Bosch Therm is thoroughly a tankless hybrid system that allows home owners to grow and expand the uses of their on demand hot water heater… And that’s a good thing since the life span of a tankless is more than 20 years!

The downstream ctaiapl requirements for natural gas are still huge. To imply that most of the fixed assets have already been depreciated is a misunderstanding of that industry. Most of the gas in the US has come from conventional fields that are very old. The pipelines that carry this gas were paid off a long time ago. Much of the new ‘investment’ is being made in the hope that shale gas is real but as I have pointed out, that is not the case. It is a fact that the shale gas producers are having trouble with cash flow and need to add large amounts of debt just to stay in business. That means that eventually they will stop drilling as much. The pipeline companies that carry them will have trouble recouping their investment. The big problem for free market advocates has been the blending of all of these costs into an aggregate to hide the true conditions in the sector. But as I pointed out, we cannot escape the consequences of reality. If gas and oil prices remain weak for a while the shale sector will be devastated and production will fall off a cliff. New production will only begin if it makes economic sense and that will only happen if the drillers also go bankrupt and their ctaiapl is bought for pennies on the dollar. At that point the energy invested in the equipment will be a sunk cost that idiot investors have paid for and the incremental energy invested will yield positive returns for a while. Since we are in a post peak world you can expect the boom/bust cycles to get worse for a while until the system breaks. (Hopefully later rather than sooner.) Of course, the optimists will hype up any positive trend as the beginning of another boom and politicians will keep blaming the greedy companies when they manage to make a bit in profit.
