Case Study: Calvin University achieves efficient, reliable hot water with Intellihot tankless systems

Calvin University replaces 4,000 gallons of stored water with Intellihot tankless efficiency

Calvin University, a higher education institution in Grand Rapids, MI, faced a challenge with its inefficient and problematic hot water system. Their four 1,000-gallon storage tanks were wasteful, prone to leaks, and posed a potential risk for bacteria like legionella. To address this, the university chose Intellihot for a tankless solution.

Intellihot implemented its solution by installing two iQ1501 commercial tankless units, which provided 3,000,000 BTU/hr of capacity. This upgrade eliminated the need for 4,000 gallons of stored water, providing immediate energy efficiency and reliability. The Intellihot system significantly decreased energy usage and now produces hot water only on demand, resulting in substantial savings in energy, cost, and effort for the university.
