Application ideas

Built around real hot-water demand.

Each image below represents the application named—select the product only after confirming flow, temperature rise, energy source and installation requirements.

Separate the water from the heating elements.

Drakken’s patent-pending water-isolated heat-transfer design separates the water path from the heating elements. Multiple controlled power stages respond to demand while the engineered exchanger supports consistent heat transfer in properly sized high-flow applications.

By isolating the heating elements from direct water contact, the design is intended to avoid dry-fire exposure, reduce mineral contact at the elements, eliminate routine screw-plug heating-element replacement, and deliver more consistent hot water when the system is correctly sized and installed.

Confidence backed by replacement coverage. Qualifying registered products include a 5-year replacement warranty. After year five, coverage may be eligible for paid reactivation, subject to Drakken approval and the current written warranty terms. Patent pending.
Electric temperature-rise planning

See how flow changes achievable temperature rise.

The curves below include electric models only and use the standard theoretical heat-balance calculation from rated electrical input. Actual performance changes with efficiency, voltage, inlet temperature, water pressure, and installation. Use the values as a planning reference until manufacturer-tested curves are approved.
