Durawatt

Durawatt is an emission-free, energy-efficient electric water heater with storage capacity up to 750 gallons, and it can support a wide range of building electrification and decarbonization projects.

Whether as a stand-alone, fully electric water heating plant, in combination with gas-fired water heaters for a versatile energy mix, or in a heat pump water heating system for backup, recirculation and storage, Durawatt is an ideal choice to meet local codes and regulations effectively.

Durawatt offers a durable, reliable electric water heating solution that is simple to maintain. The AquaPLEX storage tank, fabricated with duplex stainless steel, is highly corrosion-resistant and allows for higher storage temperatures,
while the design of individual incoloy sheathed heating elements simplifies maintenance and protects from damaging corrosive media.
