TAKAGI TANKLESS WATER HEATERS

Products  FAQ   Tank vs. Tankless    Installation Requirements   Troubleshooting   Accessories 

How it Works 

  1. You turn on the hot water in kitchen or bathroom.
  2. The water enters the heater.
  3. A water flow sensor detects the water flow.
  4. The computer automatically ignites the burner.
  5. The water circulates through the heat exchanger (coil).
  6. The heat exchanger instantly heats the water at the designated temperature (this takes only 5 seconds).
  7. The heater can provide you with endless hot water continuously so no more running out of hot water in the middle of a shower!
    When the hot water tap is turned off, the unit shuts down automatically.

Product Benefits: 

Endless Hot Water 

Takagi will supply a steady flow of hot water at the designated temperature for as long as needed, wherever it’s needed. You'll never run out.

Up to 50% energy savings 

Not only does Takagi provide you with continuous endless hot water...it does it in the most energy-efficient way possible. Traditional tank-type water heaters constantly burn gas in order to maintain the set water temperature in the tank, even when water is not being used. With a Takagi tankless water heater, water is heated only when you need it. So when you’re at work or on vacation and no one is at home, it’s not wasting energy.

Takagi tankless heaters can pay for themselves in energy savings alone. Many people experience savings of up to 50% which can pay for the unit within a year or two.  Also, check with your local energy company to see what type of credits are available. Most offer some type of financial incentive for purchasing a tankless hot water heater.

Space savings 

Get up to 90% space savings vs. traditional water heaters. With no tank to steal valuable floor space, Takagi’s wall-mounting design frees up your basement, garage or utility room for additional storage and versatility. 
 
Product Safety

When thinking about product safety, consider the following:

  • Consistently safe water temperature: All of our units are factory set at 122°F, offering a safe and steady temperature with computer controlled precision. 
  • Venting : All Takagi water heaters use the safest venting on the market today.The venting seals the exhaust from the top of the unit through the exterior and the built-in exhaust fan ensures any harmful fumes are fully expelled from the home every time the water shuts down.
  • Safety Devices: Takagi uses smart safety and monitoring devices to ensure that the system is working flawlessly. Computerized electronics allow a Takagi water heater to monitor itself, so you won't have to. 
  • Safer In An Earthquake: With a Takagi, there is no pilot light to ignite flammable vapors and no heavy tank to fall or pull pipes out of the wall, eliminating the risk of scalding from ruptured hot water pipes as well 

Applications: The smarter answer for any application

Safer, smarter and easier to place in a home, Takagi tankless water heaters are the perfect solution for a broad range of hot-water applications.

Who is Takagi?
Takagi has been making tankless water heaters since 1952 worldwide. Their commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction is evidenced by the revolutionary and highly efficient tankless water heaters they've produced over the years.

  • Takagi is the First tankless water heater company specializing in tankless-only products to enter the North American market.
  • Takagi is the First tankless water heater company to offer a tankless product (the T-H1) with an amazing thermal efficiency rating of up to 95%.
  • Takagi is the First tankless water heater company to offer a "direct vent convertible" tankless model (the T-K3) which allows you to convert the unit to a direct vent unit.
  • Takagi is the First tankless water heater company to utilize the air-fuel ratio rod, a unique safety device.  

Dedicated to protecting the environment and making the world a safer place to live for families, their mission is to produce only the highest quality, most eco-friendly and innovative tankless products possible in hopes to help relieve global warming. They are currently working with the Federal Government to help set the standards in terms of getting tankless water heaters approved by Energy Star ratings. We are also focused on increasing consumer awareness nationwide in hopes to promote the use of more energy efficient products at home.   
 
Eco Friendly
Takagi is committed to protecting public health and the environment. In addition to developing a quality line of Tankless products that are energy efficient, their products also help to reduce airborne pollutants. 

Energy Efficient 
 A Takagi is approximately 35-50% more efficient than the conventional hot-water tank. Energy is used to produce hot water only when the user needs it. Working “on demand” as apposed to working 24/7 like a traditional tank water heater, allows for less pollutants in the air. It’s that simple. Get a Takagi and you’ll be helping our environment.

Low NOx Standards 
Takagi’s units are also the only ones of its kind to receive the Southern Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) approval for their low emissions of CO and NOx.

10 Year Warranty

Takagi offers 10 years on the Heat Exchanger and 5 years on the parts. Takagi units must be installed by licensed professionals; installation done by anyone other than licensed professionals will result in the nullification of the Takagi warranty.
