Features
- Multi-Energy
- The Smart Multi-Energy Tank offers fantastic flexibility for selecting heat sources. The inner tank is heated by your boiler water and the secondary heat exchanger can be run off of either geothermal or solar energy.
- Tank-in-Tank Efficiency
- Using boiler water as a heat source for the SME 80 means that whenever your boiler fires it is providing heat not just for your home, but for your water as well.
- Tank-in-Tank Safety
- High temperatures prevent the growth of bacteria. High quality stainless steel and Triangle Tube's tank-in-tank design allow your domestic hot water to be stored at higher temperatures than traditional water heaters.
- Incredible Recovery Rate
- The large surface area of the inner tank means that water is heated very quickly. SME Indirect Fired water heaters boast a recovery rate up to 300% greater than that of conventional water heaters.
- Self-Cleaning
- The inner tank of the SME 80 is contoured to promote water movement. This design prevents lime build-up in your water heater and keeps it running efficiently.
Triangle Tube is best known for two things: feats of hydronic innovation and incredibly efficient products. The Smart Multi-Energy (SME) Tank incorporates green energy sources and a secondary heat exchanger into the classic Smart Series design. SME Indirect Fired water heaters feature an exclusive "tank-in-tank" design that Triangle Tube has been refining for three decades. To heat domestic water, the outer tank of the SME 80 fills with boiler water and the surface of the inner tank becomes a heat exchanger. SME Series Indirect Fired water heaters also have a traditional inner coil to provide additional heating from within. This dual heat exchanger design provides remarkable consistency in water heating. Two inches of water blown foam insulation ensures that your domestic hot water stays hot; the standby heat loss of SME Tanks is less than one degree per hour. Stainless steel construction of the inner tank and carbon steel construction of the outer tank provide exceptional durability. When it comes to making a decision on your next water heater, the Smart Multi-Energy Tank lives up its name.
