Tankless water heater: Z-Flex Venting Parts for Takagi

As the owner of a Tankless water heater plant to pay for all the received fuel, but uses it only Qpolezn. It becomes clear that it is efficiency - the most important parameter, which necessarily have to pay attention to when selecting staff. Indeed, if you buy a cheap Tankless water heater with an efficiency = 60%, then your joy will be short: you have to pay for fuel in 1,5 times more than your neighbor who bought an expensive Tankless water heater with an efficiency = 90%. And with today's fuel prices more expensive but more efficient Tankless water heater will pay for itself very quickly.

Z-Flex Venting Parts for Takagi



Thus, different Tankless water heaters have different efficiency. But first, let us recall that any fossil fuel goes a long way from its place of production to your Tankless water heater. And all the way - the inevitable losses. If, for example, the Tankless water heater operates on diesel, fuel oil or other liquid fuel, then before entering the fuel tank will begin series of losses. From the very beginning (in oil) for almost 6% of the energy contained in crude oil lost as a result of the emission of gas from the liquid phase. Losses in transport oil to the refinery (refinery) is approximately 1%. Crude oil is processed at the refinery, and to obtain light fractions of liquid fuels have to spend about another 9% of energy (if the technology of oil processing provides for malosernistnogo fuel). The distribution of the finished fuel from refineries to the consumer also consumes energy equivalent to about 1% of fuel energy. Thus, even before entering the Takagi Tankless water heater losses already accounted for a significant amount, and all this will have to compensate the buyer of fuel. STAGES OF ENERGY LOSS

The figure shows the various stages of energy loss. Over 100% adopted energy fuel (or other liquid fuels) in the tank of the Takagi Tankless water heater. To fill this reservoir is needed is the amount of oil, which contains 115-117% of energy. From the same graph shows that the biggest losses are in the stage of combustion. Indeed, even in our time can be seen Tankless water heaters with an efficiency = 70%.
