  10. Determining Efficiency of Systemby Serial Number

  11. Energy Factor vs. Thermal Efficiency Energy Factor = heating element energy loss + standby tank loss • Residential-size tanks only (about 75 gal. or less) • EF is determined by test procedure with 6 equal draws of hot water over a 24-hour time period totaling 64.3 gallons Thermal Efficiency = heating element energy loss • Commercial-size tanks only (about 75 gal. or more) • TE is determined strictly by the energy loss in the water heating process—commercial water usage varies widely between commercial sectors and therefore a typical daily hot water draw can not be assumed • Tankless systems = 0.85 – 0.98 EF/TE For calculating purposes, we will assume that EF is “18” less than TE.

  13. Maintenance (Flushing) Recommended at least annually Reduces wear on anode Increases transfer efficiency Increased tank capacity Increased life expectancy 13

  14. Temperature Reduction Cost = $0 3-5% annual energy cost savings per 10°F reduction http://www.energysavers.gov Payback = Immediate 14

  15. Timer Applications Electric water heaters • Reduced tank standby loss • Installed cost = $100 per timer • Annual savings = $50/timer • Payback = 2 years Recirculation pump • Reduced pipe standby loss • Installed cost = $100 per timer • Annual savings = > $100 • Payback = < 1 year 15

  16. Water Heater Replacement Expected life = 15 years Tankless unit cost = $2,500 (.96 EF) Heat pump unit cost = $2,500 (2.25 COP) Cost = $9,000 for solar Simple payback (heat pump) = 1-5 years Simple payback (tankless) = 1-5 years Simple payback (solar) = 12 years 16

  17. KEEPS Report Input Locate “Water Heating” in the KEEPS Assessment Report and modify respective figures and other necessary words/sentences for your specific school. Modify the inset boxes with the results calculated from the KEEPS Water Heating Tool. 17
