Paloma Heater
Paloma prides itself on its commitment to achieving the highest level of safety engineering in the gas appliance industry. Their products have lived up to the safety standards of countries like the US, Japan, and Australia, and Paloma still continues to strive for even higher standards.
With their innovation and efficiency, Paloma heaters are considered to be green appliances. They are 33% more efficient than the conventional tank type heaters since energy is only used when hot water is needed, saving gas and money and cutting down on carbon gas emissions. Their units are also built to pass the most stringent emissions rules in the nation, such as the Low NOx standards of the South Coast Air Quality Management District in Southern California.
A Paloma Tankless water heater is very durable and built for a much longer life. Mineral deposits on elements inside are avoided because there is no holding tank, and because it is a small unit, it fits in a small space and can be easily installed. When the machine is no longer useful, the amount of space it will use up in a land fill is minimal compared to conventional water heaters.
With a Paloma heater, safety is the utmost priority. To protect your family against scalding, hot water, temperatures can be set through the digital controller. You can make it a practice to use the lowest appropriate temperature for whatever you are doing. In the case that your Paloma heater is set to a high temperature, you can be protected against scalding hot water in the shower by making sure the “bath controller” is set to a lower temperature, which overrides the main controller.
Paloma Digital Tankless indoor models have another safety feature called the ICAD – Incomplete Combustion Avoidance Device, which is a sophisticated system that monitors and optimizes combustion in the firing chamber and shuts down the unit if there is a problem. All Paloma Digital Tankless Heaters have an overheat limiter wrap around the heat exchanger where combustion takes place. If the plastic melts or becomes deformed in any way, the unit shuts down. Another Paloma safety feature is flame failure protection, which is a thermocouple that constantly checks the main burners and automatically shuts down the unit if any problems exist. The anti-boil protector is yet another safety feature. A thermistor-type temperature sensor shuts off the unit if it detects overly high water temperature levels.
For those of you who live in areas with severe winters, the Paloma 7.4 Series, 6.6 series, and 5.3 series are equipped with freeze protection. They have electrical heating elements that protect them from freezing conditions (including windchill factor).
