Condensing Water Heaters
Condensing water heaters offer several significant advantages:
- Lower emissions
- Reduced fuel usage
- Justified return on investment
- Significant overall cost saving
The “Greener” water heater or boiler technology utilised in condensing systems recovers latent heat from flue gases and uses that additional energy to preheat return water which can lead to gross operating efficiencies of up to 98%. By using Condensing Technology, operating costs can be reduced by 15-20% resulting in substantial long term running cost savings.

Condensing Water Heater FAQ
What is a condensing water heater?
A condensing water heater; also known as a condensing boiler, is a type of water heater that achieves greater efficiency by extracting more energy out of the flue gas as compared to that of a conventional boiler and using this energy to pre-heat the return water flowing into the boiler. For more information, see

How efficient is a condensing water heater?
A condensing water heater offers an improvement in efficiency of at least 10-15% over a conventional water heater. The efficiency of a water heater is measured by the ratio of energy output to energy input, however there are two conventions for measuring the energy content of gas. To learn more about the efficiency of condensing water heaters, see How efficient is a condensing water heater?
Why use a condensing water heater?
Condensing water heaters are more environment-friendly and cost-effective than traditional water heaters in the long run. They offer many advantages including higher gross efficiency (which can reach as high as 98%), lower operating costs, and less carbon and NOx emissions. In addition, the National Construction Code 2019 mandates minimum thermal efficiency standards that prohibit the use of non-condensing water heaters in new buildings.
What is the cost of a condensing water heater?
In a commercial context, the question of cost for a condensing water heater is not something that can be answered without a clear understanding of the project application, required heating capacity and available fuel sources. Once we know these factors, we can specify and cost the most appropriate heating system for your needs. To request a free consultation, call our technical service team on 1800 337 959.
