THE INTERNET OF THINGS

• By 2020, 40.9 billion things will be connected

– Via Wi-Fi, wire line, cellular, and proximal networks

– Benefiting billions of people worldwide

– 75% of the growth between today and the end of the decade will come from non-hub devices

• IoT is Transforming:– Industry

– Infrastructure

– Media

– Education

– Work

– Recreation

– Family

– Daily life


A SMART HOME IS LIKE YOUR BRAIN

SO WHAT IS THE PROBLEM?

• The primary features IofT devices today are

convenience and security

• It is difficult to manage what you don’t

measure, but who wants to manage a lot of

things?

• Consumers are not enamored with

“automatic” devices or features that need to be

disabled or overriden

• What a “green home” needs are “smart”

devices that save water and energy without

intervention, but adding connectivity increases

their value proposition in the residential system


OUR MISSION

ISI Technology is transforming how the world heats and uses water. We have developed the

world’s first fully electronic liquid heating technology, which delivers unparalleled

performance, reliability, and flexibility. Innovative and patented digital architectures offer

unprecedented measurement, control, and connectivity of your water heating experience. A

wide range of applications can be seamlessly integrated with the Internet of Things resulting

in significant water and energy savings , information, increased comfort, and user

satisfaction.

Our first product, the MODEL 1, can significantly improve the performance of any hot water

heating system, anywhere in the world, today.

INTRODUCING THE

HEATWORKS MODEL 1The world’s first fully electronic water heater

TODAY’S RESIDENTIAL HOT WATER EXPERIENCE

Accounts for:

• 36% of household water consumption

• 12-18% of household energy costs

Existing heating technology is:

• Inefficient

• Unreliable

• Inflexible in use and operation

Results in:

• Wasted energy & water

• High maintenance and replacement costs

• No real-time temperature control

• Poor user experience

• Controlled Ohmic heating

• Water is heated using graphite electrodes and

electronic controls

• No conventional failure modes

• Operates at flow rates as low as 0.1 GPM

• Instant and accurate temperature control

• Single SKU operates 100-250 VAC, 15-48 amps, and

50-60 Hz

• Scalable and modular technology

World’s first completely electronic

water heater


THE HEATWORKS SOLUTION


OUR DISRUPTIVE WATER HEATING TECHNOLOGY

Results in:

• Energy efficiency >99%

• Energy savings of up to 40%

• Water savings of 5-10%

• Variety of installation options

• Reduced life-cycle costs

• Outstanding user experience

• Many new industrial and commercial, vertical

or complementary applications


OUR TECHNOLOGY CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE

• There are 117 million households in the US, each uses 28,000 gallons of

hot water which requires 2,000 kWh of energy per year.

• If every home in the US used a MODEL 1 water heating system, then over

640 billion gallons of water would be saved annually. That’s enough water

to supply 40% of California households.

• This scenario would also save the country 64 million MWh of energy per

year. That’s the amount of energy produced from burning 35 million tons of

coal, and would allow the closure of over 30 coal-fired power plants.

• Eliminating these plants would reduce annual CO2 emissions by 141 billion

pounds, or 4% of total US emissions from coal.


CONNECTIVITY – STAGE 1

• Control – temperature, schedule, length of water heating session

• Measure – power, flow, temperature, and energy consumption

Innovative and patented digital architectures offer unprecedented control and

measurement


HOME WATER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – STAGE 2

The MODEL 1’s IoT features can become your home’s smart water management

system, using the MODEL 1’s existing digital controls

Possibilities

• Remote temperature control, scheduling, and energy management

• Water sensing (flow, leaks, usage, sources, and quality)

• Water management control and notification

• Data generation around water usage, timing, and interfaces with other devices.

Benefits

• Centralized water management • Risk/cost reduction or elimination• Water and energy saving features

and notifications• Interoperability with devices that

use hot water • Built-in Wi-Fi router and/or extender• Data sets for consumers and

utilities



REALIZING THE DREAM

• The IofT allows devices to connect today, primarily for convenience and

security.

• As electronics become more embedded in devices, they will be able to

connect to improve system performance through information sharing and

learning their master’s habits.

• The nexus of our advanced technology with more powerful and less

expensive electronics allows the MODEL 1 and our next products to add

value to the IofT universe, realize the “smart home” dream, and make our

homes and the earth much “greener”
