Aquastar Tankless Water Heaters


Aquastar (by Bosch) is a leader in the tankless water heater industry, providing tankless water heating for a variety of applications. If you are replacing your existing water heater, why not go tankless? The benefits will be noticed the very first time you use it, and you'll wonder why you waited so long to go tankless! Looking for more Bosch products? Click here.

The Bosch Aquastar's flow-through, tankless design means that your water is heated instantly - but only for as long as you need the hot water, unlike tank water heaters which have to constantly maintain a desired hot water temperature whether or not you are using it. This translates directly into energy and cost savings. In addition, the Aquastar's compact design saves space and makes it a one-person installation job.

All water components are made of solid copper, and the heaters are constructed from stainless steel and aluminum. There is virtually no mineral buildup since the unit does not store water. These models have some of the highest efficiency ratings and best energy factors on the market.

Looking for parts for your Aquastar/Bosch?

Note: if you're replacing multiple water heaters (old tank style),
you may want to order a water heater drain pump to reduce labor by quickly/easily removing the water.

Stand-by heat loss wastes a LOT of energy.
Installing tankless water heaters saves
energy, as well as your pocket book in the
long run. Think future! Think green.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. "Aquastar specifies the 'temp. rise' based on the GPM flow; what do you mean by this?"
A. Temperature rise is the amount the heater raises the temperature of the incoming water, based on the flow rate shown of that water.

Q. "A friend of mine has a model 170 Aquastar. I don't see it listed on your site?"
A. They are no longer available anywhere. For higher btu than the above, we recommend the very efficient Takagi tankless water heaters.

Q. "Will an instantaneous water heater save me money on my utility bills?"
A. In many applications you can see a savings. There are some variables that could reduce the amount you save. One example is you will not run out of hot water, so longer showers could cut into your savings. Also, the cost of electricity, propane and natural gas in your area will affect the amount of money saved. The higher the cost for the energy type used to heat your water, the quicker you can recover the higher initial cost of installing a tankless versus tank style water heater.

Positives:

    You will never run out of hot water. "You want an hour long shower? No problem!"
    Electric units can be installed at the point of use.
    You're not paying energy costs to heat water 24 hours a day.
    They're easy to install.
    Our electric units don't require a T&P valve (no tank!) - if code allows
    Installing a tankless water heater can indeed be a bonus to the environment (why should we choose wastefulness when we're talking about finite natural resources?)

Negatives:

    They all need a minimum flow rate & pressure to turn on.
    The faster water flows through them, the lower the temperature rise. So, if you expect to take a shower while the clothes washer is running, you will need to select a unit sized to your maximum hot water flow requirements. (Gas units generally handle this a little better than electric models)
    Electric units need heavy gauge wire. Example: the 9.5kw must have 8ga wire and a 50amp breaker.
    Gas units need a much larger, special flue pipe and larger gas supply than a conventional water heater.
    At times they can produce very hot water. It's easier to get scalded.
    Gas units are more complicated than a conventional water heater.
    With some brands, parts are hard to find (not a negative if you originally purchase from us, as we like to carry parts for the units that we sell).

Summary:
Tankless water heaters have their place. They're not "the answer" to every hot water need, but if they're used correctly they can be the solution to many of them.
