Leilani visits the Noritz booth at AHR Expo 2022 and talks with James Facer, National Commercial Manager of Noritz America. James tells us all about the exciting tankless water heaters that Noritz is bringing to the market.
The first tankless water heater that James covers is the NRCR (Noritz residential condensing recirculation). The NRCR provides unlimited, instantaneous hot water with its built-in recirculation pump. That sort of technology eliminates the need for installers to put in their own recirculation pumps to use with the tankless technology, so it reduces jobsite labor. Every component is designed for service and can be maintained or repaired with tools in most HVAC technicians’ tool bags. The NRCR is designed to be serviceable for its entire lifespan, comes with a 15-year warranty, and boasts an efficiency rate of 98%.
Noritz also offers a combi boiler, the NRCB (Noritz residential combi boiler). The NRCB is a wall-hung combination boiler that can provide domestic hot water AND space heating out of a single appliance. It is also 95% efficient. A 35,000 sq ft 3-bathroom home can generally rely on just one NRCB for all of its hot water and space heating needs. As with the NRCR, the NRCB is designed to be easily serviceable.
Noritz also has the EZ series, which works well for retrofit applications because it has plumbing connections up top. The EZ series units are also 98% efficient.
On the commercial side, Noritz offers the NCC199CDV, which is its flagship commercial tankless water heater. It is possible to meet high water heating demands by cascading multiple water heaters with the NCC199CDV as the main tankless engine. The NCC199CDV also has a 10-year commercial warranty.
Noritz also has hybrid solutions in its product lineup. The Hybrid Hot product attaches to a current tank, which recovers tank water and takes stress off the tank, which reduces the likelihood of leaks and may increase longevity.
The total tankless solution comes with the TTS Synergy series. It comes in configurations ranging from 2 to 6 units for high-level installations. The TTS Synergy units have one point of connection with the facility, and the configuration can control the facility’s power, water, gas, condensate, and building recirculation with that single point of connection. The system uses an ECM (which modulates for maximum efficiency) and also acts as a storage unit for the water.

Hello today we are with james facer from noritz tankless water heaters and um he's going to talk with us a bit about um the products that they are putting out on the market. Things he's excited about. How are you doing james doing good all right? So what do you have here for us today? So we have a lot of new products that we're showcasing at ahr this year. The first one that i want to share with your group is our nrcr product, so that stands for norrid's, residential, condensing recirculation.

What this product provides is a supply of endless hot water and instantaneous hot water by incorporating a built-in recirculation pump. So what this does for the installer? Is it eliminates the need to install that recirculation pump in conjunction with the tankless on-site and significantly reduces the on-site? Labor to execute an install of that time, you'll notice immediately all the components inside of our products, with a with a phillips screwdrivers and either strong hands or channel locks or some of the pipe clamps you can completely service this product from top down. Every single component is designed for service. This is this product, is, is engineering designed to be repaired and serviced over time and again, with two simple tools: the third one being a gas manometer to be able to read gas pressures? You were able to service this product for its entire life cycle.

It carries a 15-year warranty, which is industry-leading and also boasts some of the highest efficiencies at 98. Thermal efficiency awesome that sounds fantastic yeah, so moving along. This is our noritz residential combi boiler combination boiler. So this is a real unique product.

Being wall hung, it's super uh compact, so space savings to your customer in that mechanical room, where you used to need a furnace um in a water heater or a boiler in an indirect tank to be able to provide hydronic heat. This appliance now is able to do your domestic water heating so for bathing and showering, and also you're space heating out of a single appliance, there's two sizes available: 199 000 btu model and 180 000 btu model, and that's going to give you 120 000 btus of Heat or 100 000 v2s in the smaller and being able to dedicate up to 199 000 btus of water heating. So you know a three bath home. Could utilize this 3 500 square feet roughly and to do all your space, heating and domestic water heating needs 95 efficient? So homeowners look out for huge rebates with this product.

There's parts of the country where the rebates are up to 2 500 on this product. For installing now so, you know very innovative product compact space savings, super efficient, yeah, very versatile space, yeah and the serviceability same design. You know with three basic tools: you can troubleshoot it and repair it um from top to bottom. Every single component probably makes the most sense to look at this product next.

This is our easy series model, not the easiest, to see it right now, but we have top water connections. So installers will really appreciate this feature on retrofit applications where a taint type water heater is installed across america. When you want to go tankless, we need to plumb the tankless unit, where that tank was so by providing the water connections on top we're already matching that footprint for the plumbing, which really streamlines again the overall installation and allows our plumbing partners to be able to Execute a high level job going from a tank to a tankless system, again, a consistent theme: 98 thermal efficiency - we're really probably never going to go higher than that, because there's not really anything, that's a 100 percent. Can you do any better yeah? You might get one more, but you know it's about the top of it.
It's at the top of its class in terms of efficiency. Your your homeowners and customers will really appreciate the gas savings and the benefits of endless hot water with these type of products we're going to transition a little bit over to our commercial ncc, 199 cdv model. So this is our flagship commercial unit, as you can see kind of over here. If we pan over we're able to cascade multiple commercial tankless water heaters to meet any hot water demand, so the larger the facility, the larger the hot water, needs we're able to cascade.

Multiple units together using this as a tankless engine, and be able to get the benefits in efficiency and also optimal performance in gallons per minute. 98 thermal efficiency. This carries a 10-year commercial warranty which is really stepping outside of the norm. If you compare this to tank type technologies or other, you know basis of design like a boiler and storage system, this is really going to stand out to your customers in terms of the warranty and assurance that that provides using high quality products.

Dual stainless steel heat exchangers: this was engineered for commercial use, but we didn't want to just stop with producing a high efficient, true commercial model. We wanted to offer hybrid solutions so where there's a tank uh installed right now, 100 gallon 199, 000, b2 tank type water heater. We can now easily integrate in the benefits of a tankless water heater with storage with our hybrid hot product. This product is going to be recovering the tank through this tankless unit.

There's a lot of benefits to it because we're taking the thermal stress off of the tank, where that's normally, where the leak occurs. That's a real tragedy with the tank type technology, where every other component on the tank is still good, but once that tank leaks, that's pretty much all she wrote. So you know this takes that stress away from the tank, giving that tank the best chance to have the longest life cycle again with all your serviceable parts, external of it. You could keep this product in use for your clients for for years to come.

So just marrying those two technologies - hybrid hot, is a great product for the retrofit and also new construction applications. Um really taking it to the next level, is our total tankless solution? So the tts synergy series is available in configurations from two units to six units, and this is a pre-packaged solution that is going to provide you with the ability to execute a high level installation, whether it's retrofit or new construction. You know engineers are going to really like this for new new construction, but if you're looking at a current uh project as tanks or multiple tanks or a boiler and storage setup, this is going to allow you with a one point of connection, to be able to Integrate into that facility this system, so one point of connection when i say that for power, water, gas, condensate building recirculation, this one is shown with two return lines. It comes standard with one, but there are customized customizations that are available to fit your particular application, and we also have the benefit to combine this with storage.
So this is a system pump that is an ecm system pump and it's going to modulate to maximize the efficiency of tankless water heaters that have modul modulating gas valves 11 to 1 turndown ratio per engine. So this with four engines. This is a 44 to 1 turnout ratio, so that means it's able to stage that gas combustion process in 44 stages and that's really where the energy savings are found is in the modulation and turn down ratios and also the thermal efficiency being 98 of the units. So for installers and servicers, you could rest assured, with the tts product that you'll be able to integrate this type of system, get provide your customers with a high, efficient, high performing system with minimal downtime, huge reduction in onsite, labor and also part sourcing.

We try to complete the package where that you can come in and with one point of connection uh execute. You know a high level, uh installation, yes, wow, awesome um! Thank you james.
