The US Department of Energy says that residential tank storage heaters are the highest energy consuming home appliances only second to heating and air conditioning systems. It is consuming more energy than your refrigerator, dish washer, washer and dryer combined. If you have a traditional tank style water heater in your garage, attic, or basement and older than 9 years NOW is the time to upgrade.
Tank-less Water Heating is the futurist solution — now Maxwell electric tank-less water heaters available in 99% efficiency to save you up to 50% in energy consumption, enjoy endless hot water without any recovery time, and significant space savings.

Proven Energy Savings
Traditional tanks as well as conventional tankless water
heaters use immersed coils in the water directly heating it.
This kind of design causes heat spots and over time lime
scaling and mineral deposits that decrease the heating
capacity that lowers the efficiency of the heater. The newly
designed Maxwell unit heats water instantly as it flows thru
the heating channel. The flow rate and temperature of the
incoming water are monitored by the electronic control that
activates the number of heating elements
required to reach the set temperature,
and keep it constant for maximum
comfort.
Proven and Reliable Technology
Traditional tank and conventional tank-less water heaters heat the water directly using immersed coils. This type of design causes
heat spots, lime scaling, and mineral deposit build up that affect the heating capacity, and reduce the efficiency. Since there is not
water storage and traditional coil heating element in the Maxwell heaters their efficiency improves and the product life is doubled.
The Maxwell heaters are built with a stainless steel water flow channel inside single piece aluminum cast that further increase their
service life. Precise digital control provides an endless hot water supply at constant temperature.

How Maxwell Tankless Water Heater Works
Undisputed twenty two years of heating experience and engineering has applied to develop the Maxwell tankless water heaters delivering many years of reliable water heating in your home or in commercial applications. Below is the explanation to help you to understand and to familiarize with the operation of Maxwell electric tankless water heaters.
1. Once you turn hot water faucet on, cold water flows through the unit passing thru a flow meter and inlet temperature sensor that measure the precise flow rate and temperature of the incoming water.
4. As the water flows out of the unit the water is being heated in the patented multilayer heating chamber and a second sensor at the outlet makes any necessary adjustments to ensure Maxwell tankless water heater delivers accurate and constant temperature hot water.
5. System continues to operate and remains on until no flow is detected then

goes to stand-by mode until any hot water faucet is turn on again.
6. Maxwell advanced micro-processor has numerous features to monitor and control with self-diagnostic functions and displays the working conditions, the outlet water temperature, working time and the kW power consumption to enable the homeowners to optimize the usage of the heater and maximize savings, and gain the most benefits from their investment

2. Advanced micro-processor control monitors and senses all working conditions of the heater and switches devices to fully modulate the power of the heating elements from 0-100% to provide the most precise and consistent hot water temperatures in the industry.
3. The micro-processor engages heating elements in stages depending on the demand requested by the amount of the water flow and inlet water temperature using solid state switching triac. Power is always regulated to avoid excessive startup surge.

There are many factors that go into selecting the right water heater: the number of people in the home, type of showers and tubs, water pressure and geographic region. To make the process easier, we offer the map and flow-rate table below.
1. On the map, determine the ground water temperature in your area.
2. In the corresponding column select the water heater based on how many fixtures you'll be running at the same time.
3. The temperatures shown above are based on the average coldest ground temperature in your region.
