The next phase of the current ErP Regulations become applicable on 26 September 2018 and this will mean some changes to the Lochinvar product range, with specific reference to some of the company’s gas-fired water heaters. This is likely to have an impact upon replacement water heater requirements. However, rest assured, the company is already prepared and have compliant water heaters available from stock.
Condensing Water Heaters
Lochinvar has been supplying condensing water heaters for many years and currently have eight different ranges available, including the popular EcoCharger and EcoShield models. The good news is that all eight ranges are already compliant with the forthcoming ErP legislation with NOx emissions far below 56 mg/ kWh.
Atmospheric Water Heaters
The company’s well-established Knight and Charger product ranges meet the efficiency requirements of the new ErP legislation, but when existing stocks run out, the options will be to replace with a condensing product, or with one of the new low NOx models.
The Charger low NOx range will be available during the early part of 2019, and the new Knight low NOx is already available.
