QuikWater's 99% thermal efficient Low NOx water heaters have long led the field in water heating environmental friendliness. But we have not rested on our laurels. We continue to dedicate large portions of engineering resources towards improving the product, and to reduce the emissions to the very lowest obtainable by current technology.

Those efforts have paid off, and QuikWater is very proud to announce a new line of Ultra-Low NOx heaters that consistently achieve single digit parts per million of NOx, and less than 50ppm of carbon monoxide corrected to 3% O2 (Be aware that many companies claim to achieve low NOx numbers, but most are not corrected to 3% O2, and are therefore meaningless). Test data is available upon request.

Better yet, we do this while maintaining our 99% thermal efficiency, and still producing water that is clean and fully potable.

QuikWater is in the process of completing recertification in the world's most stringent air quality district, California's South Coast Air Quality Management District. Also known as the "Clean Air People", the South Coast AQMD acts as the smog control agency for all or portions of Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties, serving 14 million people. These new single digit Ultra-Low NOx numbers will establish a new BACT (Best Available Control Technology) standard for the SCAQMD, as well as the federal government's LAER (Lowest Available Emissions Rate).

What does this mean for you? If your business is in a non-attainment area, one piece of the puzzle in controlling your operation's emissions just went away. For those of you who are not currently in a non-attainment zone, the Ultra Low NOx heaters provide peace of mind that your operations will be ahead of government regulators.
