while simultaneously lowering their energy bills.

But to get the most out of an existing heater, it is necessary to understand what factors interfere with heater efficiency, and there are many.

Certainly, proper water chemistry plays a role in the long-term life and efficiency of a heater. Heater exchange tubes tend to build up with chemical residues such as scale, particularly if the LSI is off. Ensuring proper water chemistry balance is the best way to prevent against this.

But there are many other factors that affect heater efficiencies.

In this issue of Service Industry News, we will explore some of these in detail.
