Bradford White (Ambler, Pa.) introduced its EF Series commercial gas ultra high efficiency water heater. The original EF Series water heater was designed to provide a commercial unit that combined efficient performance, quiet operation, and installation versatility. According to the company, the 100-gallon, 199,999-Btu water heater has a 98.5 percent efficiency rating.
The new series includes a 250,000-Btu model and a 150,000-Btu model that offers a 99.1 percent efficiency rating, making these water heaters “perfect for commercial applications where the primary criteria are large volumes of water and reduced energy costs,” the company said.
