What is a condensing gas water heater?
Condensing gas furnaces are the most efficient furnaces on the market. So much heat is taken out of the natural gas flame that the gas cools down to the point of actually compensating moisture on the inside of the flue as it travels to be exhausted above the roof line. Just the same way a cold beer on a summer afternoon gets wet on the outside of the glass. This condensation is acidic and must be handled properly. The venting assembly must be made of a noncorrosive material and that is most often stainless steel, PVC plastic or ABS plastic. The waste water from the vent is then drained into a nearby sink waste line or laundry trap. Go to top–contact us –Call us 1.877.247.6426.
