new takagi x3 tankless water heater release

**2022 Update**

If you don’t know, the Takagi X3 tankless water heaters that were promised in 2019 never became manifest. Until now, and it was worth the wait. PlumbersStock offers all the brand new models with X3 technology, and dozens of other Takagi tankless water heaters, as well. Let’s get to the new X3 models.

Ask any plumber, and they’ll tell you that one of the biggest problems tankless water heaters face is scale build-up. Maintenance can be a significant pain, and it threatens the life of the water heater unit. The innovative engineers at Takagi have a solution. With that in mind, it’s easy to see why we’re so excited about the new Takagi X3 scale prevention technology. As Takagi explains this innovation:

Our cutting-edge X3 technology extends the unit’s life three times longer than traditional tankless. It makes it the first tankless product that maintains “like new” performance without requiring regular scale-related maintenance.

If you are familiar with Takagi as a company, it should be no surprise that they continue to lead the way with quality engineering. As of this December 2019 announcement, Takagi has only three gas-fueled X3 models scheduled for Q1 2020 release (the exact date is not yet known):

  • 160k BTU TK-160X3P
  • 180k BTU TK-180X3P
  • 199k BTU TK-199X3P

Takagi X3 Features

Here is a pretty comprehensive list of the features you will get with any of the Takagi X3 tankless water heater models. They only differ in their output:

  • Integrated recirculation pump
  • Life expectancy is three times longer than that of an unprotected unit. This is made possible by built-in media that requires no attention and will last the life of the water heater.
  • There is no need for regular scale maintenance.
  • There are no warranty exclusions for those with hard water in their area.
  • The unit maintains performance “like new” for longer.
  • 2″ PVC venting makes installation easy.
  • It operates with a 1/2″ gas line.
  • ENERGY STAR rated
  • Fuel convertible and indoor/outdoor

How Many BTUs Do You Need?

If you are wondering how many BTUs you need, consider what your usage is? If you have a small residence with only a couple of showers and appliances, you can get away with 160,000 BTUs. You’re going to want to pay attention to how many gallons of water per minute the tankless unit can heat. Between lavatory faucets, tub faucets, and the kitchen sink, each station uses between 1 and 2 gallons per minute. Think about how many faucets and appliances you’d realistically run at once, and then ask yourself how many gallons per minute of heated water will this model produce?
