Details Of Session:
Water heating fundamentals:
Equipment Design: Storage water heaters, instantaneous water heaters, semi-instantaneous water heaters. What are the advantages and disadvantages to each?
Efficiency:
Certification requirements. ASHRAE 90.1, ANSI 21. 10.3, BTS 2000. What is the testing criteria for each of these standards? Tested efficiency vs. actual operational efficiency for different types of water heating design. Are instantaneous water heaters actually more efficient than storage water heaters? What does it mean when a manufacturer lists a Third Party Certification testing entity?
Tested efficiency vs. actual operational efficiency for different types of water heating design. Are instantaneous water heaters actually more efficient than storage water heaters?
Materials of construction
