Light commercial tankless unit Light commercial version of the popular T-K3, called the T-K3-Pro, uses commercial-grade quality materials. Its heat exchanger is made with heat-resistant HRS35 copper alloy that is stronger and harder than standard copper to resist erosion, leaks. Thermal rating of 84% for liquid propane and 82% for natural gas; starts heating water at 0.5 gpm, generates unlimited hot water at a max flow rate of 7.0 gpm. Can connect up to 4 units together without the need for a system controller. Takagi.

Grooved copper system The Gruvlok® cts Copper System requires only a wrench for assembly on grooved end pipe, eliminating conventional soldering and brazing. Allows installers of large diameter copper tubing to install faster and easier with no sweating or brazing required, and eliminates temperature and weather factors as installation concerns. Flame-free system eliminates fire hazards, increasing on-the-job safety. Fittings mate directly to copper tube, providing a rigid and durable locked-in connection for tube size ranging from 2" to 8" dia. Because there’s a union at every joint, fast assembly is assured.

Freeze unit The sf-2500 SuperFreeze™ pipe freezing unit quickly and easily isolates sections of copper or steel pipe with ice plugs, eliminating complete system shut-downs and draining. Forms ice plugs in as little as 5 min in steel pipes up to 2" and copper tubing up to 21/2". One or two plugs can be formed with a single unit at the same time. Operates automatically once freeze heads attach to the pipes and the unit is turned on. Continues to run during repairs, ensuring the ice plugs do not melt. Flexible rubber hoses connect the freeze heads to the unit; makes them easier to handle and allows quicker coiling and storage in its rugged stainless steel carrying case. Does not use any hazardous refrigerants, carbon dioxide or nitrogen. RIDGID. |
