BEFORE
AFTER
Project Overview
Althoff Industries replaced two traditional domestic water boilers that had reached the end of their useful life with six tankless water heaters at a busy Gold Coast restaurant.
THE CHALLENGE
The existing domestic water boilers had reached the end of their useful life, but the restaurant could not operate without a dependable supply of hot water.
THE SOLUTION
Our team first completed an overnight shutdown to install new isolation valves. We then installed six tankless water heaters with new racking, manifolds, gas and electrical connections, PVC intake and exhaust piping, and copper supply and return piping.
THE RESULT
A combination of the existing and new equipment remained operational throughout the conversion, allowing the restaurant to remain open without disruption.
