Direct Fired Water Heating

Indirect fired water heaters are a modern system and are in current sales and use.

Direct fired water heating.

A direct fired water heater can be heated by propane oil or natural gas and has its own burner. This increases the chance of heat losses in the boiler and associated pipework between the boiler and calorifier. These types of water heaters are traditionally the most energy efficient. Cold water travels down through a bed of multifaceted stainless steel packing rings that break the water into smaller and smaller droplets.

Direct fired high efficiency water heating systems maximizer systems specializes in the design manufacture and installation of energy efficient water heating systems. A direct fired heater is a style of heater in which a burner provides hot gasses that transfer their heat energy to a process liquid or gas flowing directly through coils installed inside the heater vessel. Our systems will reduce your energy cost and carbon footprint while meeting 100 of your company s hot water needs. Direct fired water heaters are solely dedicated to the job of hot water generation providing a faster heat up and response time compared with an indirect system which is in fact heating water to heat water.

Where an indirect fired water heater is installed the coil is inserted not in the heating boiler but rather in the bottom of a hot water tank. They are self contained systems that are vented to the outdoors and operate independent of the main heating system. How the flo direct gives you top performance and efficiency in a direct fired water heater. Direct fired water heaters provide their own heat source either by an oil burner or a natural gas propane burner.

They are more energy efficient than an indirect water heater because it heats the water itself.
