Valley View Elementary School in Green Bay, Wis., upgraded its aging water heater.
By replacing a 15-year-old gas unit with A. O. Smith’s Cyclone FLEX water heater, the school increased efficiency to as much as 98% while ensuring consistent hot water for kitchens and student handwashing, and reducing its overall carbon footprint.
Many people still hesitate when they hear the phrase “tankless water heater.” The myths run deep: they won’t work in cold climates, they’re too expensive, they can’t keep up with demand. These misconceptions are fueled by early limitations in the technology and years of hearsay passed along between homeowners – and even some tradespeople.
The manufacturer of residential and commercial water heating technology will showcase ongoing innovation for plumbing engineers and designers.
Bradford White Corporation engineers will deliver the seminar “Navigating the Future of Commercial Water Heating: Key Insights on DOE 2026 Updates, Efficiency, Venting, and Retrofit Design.”
This case study covers a car wash business looking to upgrade its struggling boiler setup.
When aging boilers left A-1 Truck & Car Wash vulnerable to costly downtime, the facility turned to a scalable tankless system that delivered faster installation, greater efficiency and reliable hot water for its high-volume operations.
Twelve courses will be offered on A. O. Smith's line of heat pump water heaters, tankless water heaters, commercial gas water heaters and smart hybrid units
