Polaris Water Heater PG10 34-100-2PV PROPANE Gas, Residential Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this unit to use in a radiant heat system.I was told by the salesman that it was "the most effecient water heater made."I expected (and was promised)that would translate into lower heating bills.

I must say that although the unit has functioned perfectly, it is an INCREDIBLE fuel hog.I burned 500 gllons of propane in 4 months to heat a 1,500 square foot shop to 55 degrees.Now before you start thinking this building must not be insulated properly, I have 30 inches of insulation in the ceiling and 8" walls.The slab is well insulated (2" all around) and the doors are insulated.I used the best windows you can buy.This shop is built way better than most people's home.This is not an insulation problem.

In all fairness, the unit was easy to install, functions flawlessly, but it burns an incredible amount of propane (basically $250 per month at local prices.)I could have put in an $800 gas fireplace and heated the shop another 10 degrees warmer for half the propane cost and saved myself $9,500 on a radiant system.

To say I'm disappointed in the "fuel effeciency" of the Polaris water heater would be a HUGE understatement.
