The 28-C Series is the tankless solution for the high-end Paloma House that luxuriates its owners in an abundance of hot water. There is a 28-C solution for the water needs of any and every home.
Very simply, the 28-C is a hot water server that can be installed as a multi-unit system to give you twice, thrice, even four times the volume of hot water of a single 28-R Paloma…on up to a colossal system consisting of 20 Palomas acting in concert as a single system.
The brains for this system reside in a special multi-unit digital controller.
Do you need the abundance offered by the 28-C Series? Perhaps, if…
| You are afraid that a single 28-R Paloma will not keep up with the simultaneous hot water demand during the daily shower-time rush…or |
| You need a solution for the holidays, when who knows how many showers will be called into action…or |
| You need a hot water solution that will keep up with the hot water wonderworld you are building into your new home…or |
| You simply want to take advantage of the fast-fill capability of your new whirlpool tub, at rates of 8 or 10 gallons per minute. |
