Case Study: MKE Lofts achieves energy-efficient hot water with Intellihot

Historic lofts in downtown Milwaukee gets modern face-lift and goes green

MKE Lofts, a 9-story, 105-unit multifamily property in Milwaukee, was undergoing a complete rehab of the historic Caswell building and needed a water heating solution that supported the city’s strong green initiatives. The existing tank-type heaters were not aligned with the property’s sustainability goals, so the team looked for a more efficient system.

Intellihot Inc. supplied five i250s, cascaded together for fully condensing, on-demand hot water. The system delivered uninterrupted service with up to 93% real-world efficiency and helped reduce energy waste by as much as 40% compared with traditional water heating methods, while also saving space and adding redundancy for reliable operation.
