Abstract

The objective of this project is to conduct research for the Florida Natural Gas Association (FNGA), a cost-share partner of a two-year research plan. The first-year work plan is described in this document. The topic of research that is of interest to the FNGA and the residential buildings community is to conduct evaluation of high-efficiency natural-gas condensate tankless water heaters and hybrid-combined, solar-thermal systems. The research will be performed at the Hot Water Systems Lab (HWS) located at the Florida Solar energy Center (FSEC) in Cocoa, FL.
