Sio Green SIO18-220v/80A/18kW -Infrared Electric Tankless Water Heater – Instant Hot Water Heater – Corrosion Free – Free Maintenance
Previous technology, which accounts for a majority of the homes today, will heat a tank full of water from the inside with metallic heating elements. The elements eventually corrode and efficiency decreases rapidly. This leads to high electricity bills, unhealthy water, and expensive equipment costs for maintenance or product replacement. In most electric tankless designs, water flows past heating coils to produce the on-demand hot water, rather than keeping it stored. However, the results are still the same.
Our Engineers first decided on a completely no metallic heating tube, that would be resistant to corrosion, hard water deposit build up and could inject heating BTUs into to water as it passed through the heat exchanger. Their choice of media to use was Quartz. Not only is there an abundant supply of Quartz worldwide, it is also recyclable! Quartz heating tubes have been used for many years because of its rapid thermal properties and stability after many years of use without any deterioration. A patented coating was applied to the outside of the Quartz tubes to reflect or contain the Far-Infrared Energy to heat cold water as it passed through the heating chambers. Far-Infrared energy is safe and is known to condition hard water deposits.

Far Infrared Ray & Quartz Elements
Far infrared heating technology has been developed by NASA for decades, and quartz tubes are used for various high temperature applications. The process of combining carbon coating heating element technology on quartz tubes to generate far infrared energy to heat water and amplifies far infrared energy inside the quartz tube.
The benefits of Quartz Elements
Free-Maintenance
No more routine flushing to maintain some level of the efficiency and since you don’t have to replace the heating elements periodically, it will save you both time and money!
No Corrosion & No Calcium Deposits
The systems energize your water with quartz elements that create heat without requiring direct contact of metal for heating with the water and minimizes your chances of corrosion accumulating in the water.
Features
Automatic Modulating Technology
In Automatic mode, the software is using smart modulating technology and formula to calculate the difference between the desired temperature and current temperature, then predicts how much power it requires to ensure the process temperature remains as close to the set point as possible.
Temperature Adjustment
Our premium Sio18 designed for high performance usage in Residential operating 24h/a day for 365 days a year.

i love this water heater

Put this in our Cabin very easy to install so far works great! We are in the northwest and have a well we won’t use it in the winter but even this fall when it is getting cold the water still heated up great!

We needed a replacement of our old tankless water heater because it started to malfunction due to lime scale accumulation. I researched for a long time and could not find a suitable replacement, until I ran into the Sio Green brand on Amazon. It promises to be Cost-Effective & Corrosion Free with No Lime Scale, No Algae, No Bacteria and that’s a future technology that’s available right now which is exactly what I was longing for! I’m so happy I also don’t have to worry about Algae, Bacteria and Corrosion, but the added bonus of this unit being able to heat the water much, much hotter than the previous unit (with the same power requirements) was a welcome surprise, so much so that we had to turn the thermostat temperature down! So now it’s even more cost effective than we originally thought.Thank you Sio Green, for bringing your line of products to market, and I only hope others can take advantage of your amazing well overdue technology for this world!!!

The only thing I would suggest would be that Sio Green include a flex connector kit along with unit … we had to delay until they arrived so my guy could install. Very pleased so far with the heater … love the idea and savings.

Works great, saves money. Very compact and lightweight. If you plan heavy use go with a bigger unit.

Easy install. Not happy with the plastic 1/2″ plastic fittings 3/4″ coming in from home. So I wonder why the unit was not fitted with 3/4″ brass fittings. Try not to over tighten. Would be helpful if Sio Green included torque specifications.

Installed it for a shop tub sink. Puts out plenty of hot water. Awesome POU heater. Celsius only read out is strange but hey it does the job.
Amazon Customer –
Very simple to install and works great.

It arrived a day earlier than expected and my contractor friend had it up and running in a few hours. I love the non metal heating concept and it doesn’t disappoint. Washer and shower running hot water at the same time with just minor water flow adjustment. Yes, I am very happy and the Sio14 is all I hoped it to be.My friend the contractor stated he would start recommending the Sio14 & 18 to future customers.5 stars well deserved for distributor & manufacturer!UPDATE: Still very happy with the unit. Works great, efficient and perfect for my small household.If you are installing for a larger household, I would suggest a larger unit or two of the Sio14 units.For me, still one of the best, cost efficient home improvement decisions made!
