SYSTEM 2000 is the first and the best engineered fully integrated heat and hot water system available today. Here's why: Beginning with a detailed analysis of conventional heating equipment, SYSTEM 2000 designer and Energy Kinetics founder John Marran discovered that traditional boilers were unable to provide adequate amounts of hot water when it was needed, and consumed too much energy from constant operation.

SYSTEM 2000's design maximizes energy efficiency and its utilization through a unique and highly efficient Energy Converter. Integrated components such as the Hot Water Exchanger, Storage Tank, Zone Control and solid state monitoring also contribute to the system's outstanding performance. This complete system of integrated components effectively manages heating energy in the most efficient means possible. The home heating thermostat (or zone control) signals the Digital Energy Manager that there is a call for heat. The digital manager then alerts the system and in less than 90 seconds, the energy converter is distributing full energy output where required. After the thermostat setting has been satisfied, the digital manager distributes any energy remaining in the boiler and puts it to work heating the home. This energy recovery is what dramatically contributes to savings as compared to conventional heating systems or other cold start boilers. The Digital Energy Manager also continually monitors the water temperature in the storage tank. The manager senses when hot water is being used and directs the system to generate a steady supply at a near constant temperature. The hot water exchanger produces 175 gallons of first hour hot water draw, providing virtually unlimited hot water. When hot water demands are satisfied, heat remaining in the energy converter is transferred to the storage tank so energy is never wasted.
