Takagi T-K3-Pro Tankless Water Heater
Takagi T-K3-Pro
The Takagi T-K3-Pro is based on Takagi's popular T-K3 residential tankless water heater, but is a more heavy-duty instrument intended for light commercial use, such as restaurants. It is also appropriate for residential applications where heavy demand is expected, such as houses that use space heating. For even larger applications, Takagi's Easy-Link technology allows you to connect up to four water heaters without needing a separate control unit. Takagi provides accessories that permit the T-K3-Pro to be installed outdoors, or placed inside a wall between studs, for maximum versatility in installation options.
The T-K3-Pro is the same size as the standard T-K3 (20.5" x 13.8" x 8.5", 40 lbs.), but uses HRS-35 copper tubing for its heat exchanger, adding the durability necessary to stand up to heavy use. It can work with either natural gas or liquid propane. Natural gas gives a thermal efficiency of 82%, while liquid propane has an efficiency of 85". The T-K3-Pro uses electric ignition, so there is no need to maintain a pilot light.
Depending on the setting, the T-K3-Pro can produce water at temperatures ranging from 99 to 185 degrees Fahrenheit -- the basic unit comes with dip switches that can be used to set the temperature to one of eight choices, and an optional remote control unit makes a wider variety of temperatures possible. Water pressure can be anywhere from 15 psi to 150 psi, although the manufacturer recommends more than 40 psi for best results. The T-K3-Pro activates at a rate of 1/2 gallon per minute, so it is possible to get hot water even with a relatively low flow, helping reduce waste. It has a top flow rate of 7 gallons per minute. Like all of Takagi's products, the T-K3-Pro water heater is Energy Star compliant.
The T-K3-Pro was named one of HousingZone.com's 100 best new products for 2009.
