SIMCO₂E
The Simcoe is the first commercial CO₂ heat pump water heater to be manufactured here in North America. Purpose-built for electrification in cold climates, the Simcoe is engineered to meet up to 100% of the domestic hot water demand in large commercial facilities without the need for supplemental heat. Its modular design and broad ambient operating range ensure reliable performance, delivering water temperatures up to 171°F even in conditions as cold as -15°F.

Double-Wall Brazed Plate Heat Exchanger
No separate plate heat exchanger required. With a factory-integrated double-wall brazed plate heat exchanger, installation is simplified with fewer components, less piping, and reduced labor. The result is less complexity, lower project costs, and a cleaner, more streamlined mechanical room.
Electrical Resistance Heat Capacities
*For CWV350, if trim and backup are installed
Performance Data
Performance data tested in accordance with AHRI Standard 1300, DOE test point of 70°F inlet and 120°F outlet water temperatures at 80.6°F test air temperature.

Sustainable Commercial Hot Water Heating
Ideal for new and retrofit domestic hot water and potable water systems in large scale commercial facilities such as multifamily condos and apartment complexes, hotels, gyms, education, healthcare, and hospitality.
Natural CO₂ Refrigerant
Utilizing natural CO₂ refrigerant (R744) with a low GWP of 1 and ODP of 0 provides the environmentally safest solution for the decarbonization of large-scale domestic hot water heating systems. A safe and environmentally friendly option due to its characteristics of being both non-toxic and non-flammable.
Cold Climate Performance
Transom’s Simcoe unit delivers a continuous supply of hot water for large commercial facilities, regardless of demand. With a high COP even in extreme cold conditions down to -15°F, it ensures unmatched efficiency and performance when it matters most.
