Used when there is an existing chimney and the heater can be vented to the outside through the chimney.

Power Vented (PV)

Combination Vented (COMBO)

Uses a domestic water heater to provide efficient space heating and to supply hot water for domestic purposes. Used with Air Handlers for home heating.

Tankless water heater

A small and compact option, this unit heats water on demand without a storage tank and is direct vented outside of a home.

Electric (ELEC)
