Sizing Factors We Consider:

• Peak hot water demand (gallons per minute)
• Number of bathrooms and hot water fixtures
• Simultaneous use patterns in your home
• Temperature rise required (incoming water temperature to desired output)
• Fixture flow rates (showers, dishwashers, washing machines)

Typical Sizing Guidelines:

• 1-2 Bath Homes: 140,000-180,000 BTU units
• 2-3 Bath Homes: 180,000-200,000 BTU units
• 3+ Bath Homes: 200,000+ BTU units or multiple units
• High-Demand Homes: Multiple units or commercial-grade systems

Professional Assessment Includes:

• Flow rate testing of existing fixtures
• Temperature measurement of incoming water supply
• Usage pattern analysis for your household
• Gas supply capacity evaluation
• Electrical system assessment for control requirements
