Direct Vent Hot Water Heaters
Requiring no power to operate these modern direct-vent water tanks, they provide your family with enough hot water for household use as well as radiant-floor heating. Highly efficient, direct-vent water tanks keep most of the heat inside the system meaning you consume less fuel for every gallon of hot water.
