Why tankless water heaters?
With all these years of traveling and overseas connections we could not help but notice that our business associates the world over take tankless technology for granted. In fact, in most cases it really is all they know. On a trip to Europe in 2005, our vice president noticed a tankless heater and questioned his business associates about it. On his trips to Central America and Asia, our company president began to take notes on the tankless methods. We arrived at the conclusion that in America, the way in which we make hot water is costly and inefficient, and woefully behind the times.
After literally months of product application research, studying the types and methods of manufacture, testing numerous sample products and discussions with several factories, we formed a solid business plan. We then entered into a relationship with one of the worlds largest manufacturers of tankless heaters and boilers. The units we import and distribute are made specifically for our company under our own USA registered brand name. These units are designed and built for use solely in the American market. You might see imitations, you may even see comparable models from other manufacturers, but on design, quality and point of sale purchase, we believe we are the market leaders. The time we took on design and development paid off, and we have a fabulous line of affordable real world applicable water heaters, the kind we would, and as a fact do use in our own homes.
The business model
The primary reason for our more than competitive pricing is our streamlined business model. This business model, unlike most industry competitors, means that we are not located in a multi-million dollar facility in an industrial park in a metropolitan area. We proudly boast that we are a hands-on company, and the complete understanding of our product line extends from our CEO to our telephone personnel. Every single person working in this facility understands the internal components of every heater we sell and how those components operate. It helps that we specialize in tankless water heaters and do not stock or supply other non related products.
